About

The Seven Principles Retreat for couples is a 6-hour virtual couples retreat based on the internationally acclaimed research of Dr. John Gottman as presented in his New York Times bestselling book—The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work. This educational workshop has been offered across the US and internationally, and has strengthened the relationships of tens of thousands of couples. It’s specifically designed to help couples improve their friendship and learn powerful communication and conflict management skills.

The workshop includes lectures, demonstrations, videos and private couples exercises. The activities are fun, insightful and informative. There is no need to worry about sharing your personal problems in front of others… we don’t do any group sharing at this workshop.

Couples will learn and practice research-proven tools:

• Make conflict work for your relationship
• Deepen intimacy and build trust
• Identify your solvable vs. perpetual issues
• Strengthen your foundation of friendship
• Collaborate more effectively to solve problems
• Communicate clearly and effectively (…and get more of what you want and need as a result!)
