Format:Paperback
Repressing emotions is a tendency that many people have in order to find some kind of protection thinking they will avoid being hurt. But, in actual fact, it doesn't and spoil relationships.
This book stresses the importance of expressing our emotions so we can be free from them. As long as we keep our emotions inside we are prisonners of them but when we learn to express them in the right way, free of shame and guilt, then we take control of our life.
A good book to read even though I wasn't impressed by the childish drawings and the yellow thick pages.

Before John Gray became an idiot
26 July 1999
Format:Paperback
This book shows real insight into human emotion and interpersonal dynamics, presented in a very gentle, simple way. Why he gave up and became the gender stereotyper from hell, I don't know. I guess because it sold better. Too bad, because this is the better approach. He discusses the dynamics of emotional connection without resorting to "men do this, women do that" by showing that when one partner, regardless of gender, behaves a certain way, the other will respond accordingly.
The tone of this book, again, is simple, almost childish, but gets the points across. "The Two Step", is the grown-up version.

Very Very Good
9 Aug 2003
Format:Paperback
This book is very helpful in understanding yourself and your partner. It is a very easy read and could be mistaken as too "simple" - but the beauty of this book is that it has taken some of the most complex feelings and reduced it to bite size ideas and adorable cartoons. I am a highly educated person and thought the cartoons were brilliant (BS, MS, JD) - some reviewers did not like them? Read this book more than once and learn a lot about relationships. I am really hoping to (educationally smart - relationship dummy).

Navigating Negative Emotions
11 April 2008
Format:Paperback
"The major cause of human dissatisfaction and frustration is the absence of love." ~ pg. 2
"What You Feel You Can Heal" is an uncomplicated guide to emotions we all experience. John Gray encourages the reader to express their negative emotions in order to create an environment in which love can flourish and grow. The main premise is that repressed emotions block the flow of love.
Each page is illustrated with an amusing cartoon, which makes this book a quick read. In a matter of hours you can learn a few useful techniques that allow you to feel more positive about life.
John Gray encourages the idea of writing love letters although I still think the section of the letter with all the negative issues (I hate...) might be a bad idea. There is also a strange section on "duplication" where you repeat what someone says in order to become more empathetic. I found the following to be very true:
"The people who make you the most angry are the people you care about the most." ~ pg. 2
