"Do you want to be happier as a couple in your marriage? Are you arguing more than agreeing? Does it seem like you are losing your marriage to parenthood? Do you want more self-respect, partnership, happiness, and unity? There is marriage hope and marriage help! Re-Vitalizing Our Marriage includes current spiritual guidance from the Baha'i Faith, input from science about success factors, quotes from experienced couples at all life stages, practical activities, and reflections. These will assist and encourage you to:

- Begin with small positive actions that re-build your connection

- Strengthen individual self-respect and well-being

- Establish support for you as a couple and your family

- Build communication and consultation skills

- Address and recover from marriage problems

- Re-commit to and re-create your marriage partnership

- Restore your vitality as a couple and family

A vital marriage is dynamically alive and thriving. However, your marriage can be challenged at any point with being distracted and disconnected. Difficult experiences may cause you to behave independently instead of being partners. With Re-Vitalizing Our Marriage, you can become happier, healthier, and more unified.

Someone shares in the book: ""When we recognized our marriage was in trouble, we knew we needed professional help. What we didn't initially realize was that we would need to do work as individuals as well. We also discovered that many of the principles of the Baha'i Faith helped us to sustain this work so we could rebuild our marriage.""

To create this helpful book, Susanne M. Alexander draws on her experiences as a Marriage Coach and Educator and on those of her own marriage. She shares a depth of material from the Baha'i teachings and science about how you can have a successful marriage. Establishing healthy marriages is at the foundation for thriving families and communities, and Re-Vitalizing Our Marriage shows you how."

The Wilmette Institute is an agency of the National Spiritual Assembly of the Bahá'ís of the United States. Susanne shares: ""I have had an adventurous time with relationships and marriages. My first marriage gave me a daughter-and now son-in-law and two granddaughters. However, it was very difficult, as he had many illnesses. The marriage ended in divorce when our daughter was 18. I married again, a very happy marriage, with three young adult stepchildren. We did marriage preparation and marriage enrichment efforts together. This second husband died from brain cancer just before our 10th wedding anniversary, after two years of caregiving. Matching websites, dating experiences, and moving led me to find a third husband with two adult stepchildren, and we are in a happy marriage. With all these adventures, as well as professional education, I've had many opportunities to experience, observe, and learn from the world of connecting and finding someone to marry and then building a good marriage. It has not been easy, but when I've learned marriage skills and when marriage works well with love, friendship, and consultation, it's absolutely the best place to be."" Susanne is originally from Canada and now lives with her husband Phil Donihe in Tennessee, in the United States. They often collaborate in working with couples."
