Book Review:
''Buddhism for Couples'' is a refreshing and practical guide that skillfully applies ancient Buddhist principles to the modern challenges of romantic partnerships. Author Sarah Napthali, a long-term practitioner and mother, writes with humor and clarity, making profound spiritual concepts accessible for everyday life. The book tackles real-world issues head-on, from housework and conflict to sex and infidelity, offering a path toward greater understanding and harmony.

The core strength of this book is its emphasis on self-awareness and self-compassion as the foundation for a healthy relationship. By guiding you to understand your own mind through mindfulness, it helps you break free from stale, reactive patterns of behavior. This isn't about changing your partner, but about transforming your own responses, which in turn enriches the entire dynamic. Whether you are new to Buddhism or a seasoned practitioner, this book offers valuable, grounded strategies to help you and your partner ''scale the heights of relationship happiness.'' A highly recommended read for any couple looking to cultivate a more peaceful and connected partnership.
