Relationships and  Communication

Great John Gray

Marriage counselor John Gray, Ph.D. (MarsVenus.com) is the bestselling relationship author of all time. He has written 16 bestselling books including Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus. 

 

His latest, Why Mars & Venus Collide, reached the Amazon Top 100. 

This bestseller reveals how men and women can improve relationships by understanding how they cope differently with stress (dukkha).

 

Dr. John Gray shares insightful ideas to take advantage of the differences in male-female communication styles. Why are they different? Social, hormonal, and structural brain differences. Maybe karma, too. Whatever the case, modern men need more testosterone, whereas women need more dopamine. Too much may be toxic, but not enough is terribly damaging to relationships and intimacy.

 

Why Mars & Venus Collide reveals how we can improve our relationships. How? We can understand that the sexes tend to cope with stressors differently.  Distress, eustress, it's all stress, and it's all around us. Great relationships are possible anyway.

Hormones: Venus, Mars -- Fire, Ice (John Gray)

How Stress Affects Hormones on Mars and Venus
What do you think of when you hear the word stress? Is it having too much to do? Maybe it’s a traffic jam, or concern over unpaid bills? Or perhaps it’s a teenage son or daughter who is being uncooperative or a boss who is making impossible demands at your job?

One thing we can agree upon is that in today’s society the sources of stress are many. The production of adrenaline and cortisol by our adrenal gland is how our bodies respond to stress. Unfortunately, the production of these stress hormones can gradually deplete our supply of feel good hormones such as testosterone for men and oxytocin for women.

• Increasing oxytocin levels
• Natural testosterone boosters

The release of stress hormones was an important factor in the basic survival of primative people. Confronted by a bear, for example, the release of adrenaline, cortisol, and other hormones gave our bodies a short burst of energy and acute mental clarity. More>>

Sex-linked: Men, Women, Emotions

M.K. Jones (Examiner.com)

Most of us have heard a woman make the common complaint that the man in her life is emotionally unavailable, or if she’s still unattached, that she's developed a pattern of forming doomed relationships with emotionally unavailable men, as though there were some sort of sliding scale of emotional availability and the secret to a happy relationship is a man whose emotions are easily accessible.

The reality, however, is that, generally speaking, all men are emotionally unavailable relative to women. Further, if women accepted this fact and even embraced it as a positive difference that separates men and women, instead of bemoaning men's apparent lack of emotion as compared to (most) women’s more open style of emotional expression, they might find more happiness and fulfillment within their relationships with men. At the same time, men could feel more appreciated for their strengths rather than being the brunt of blame for their emotional deficits as well as their restraint in sharing their feelings. More>>
