The Heart of Love: How to Go Beyond Fantasy to Find True Relationship Fulfillment

This book was recommended to me, and I have to say it does have a lot of thought-provoking material. There are parts that I feel could have been better phrased as to not alienate certain people, but overall, I do think the point of the book was on point. I definitely have learned a bit about myself by doing a couple of the exercises, and I imagine I'll be coming back to reread this soon to do more of the exercises, see what else I can discover. If you're having trouble relating to people (especially in your romantic relationships) then I recommend this book.

If, like me, you've tried everything to save a floundering marriage, Dr. Demartini may be your last and best hope. My husband and I attended one of his "Breakthrough Experience" workshops a couple of months ago and it was a revelation - we definitely had a breakthrough! This book puts on paper most of what we learned in the workshop but is obviously aimed more specifically at relationships. Even if you don't do all of the exercises with the intensity he suggests, I challenge anyone one to participate in his techniques and not experience a profound and lasting change in the way you experience your relationships - all of them - spouses, kids, parents, friends...the lot. The only reason I haven't given this book five stars is that it moves quite quickly and not all of the concepts are rounded out enough, especially if you have no prior knowledge of Dr. Demartini's work. Even so, it ultimately delivers what is promised in the title: a way to move beyond fantasy and into true relationship fulfillment.

Dr. John Demartini's "The Heart of Love" opened my mind and my heart in breakingthrough my perceived myths and fantasies about what relationships "should" be. Thanks to the solid principles that are well researched and are practically demonstrated by his two signature tools detailed in the book: The Demartini Value Determination Process® & The Demartini Method®, I have through consistent practice and application of these two tools created more fulfilling relationships with my family, with my friends, locally in Hawaii and internationally around the world. Whenever people share their challenges with me, I have solid principles to assist them in understanding the behaviors of their loved ones and guiding them by asking the quality questions I have been taught to assist them in seeing both sides and understanding the roles that our relationships are playing for us to become more authentic, congruent, and in fulfilling our inspired destiny. A Must Read for anyone who is serious about mastering the art & science of relationships.

John’s book is a fresh approach to romantic relationships and true love. I wouldn’t say I agree with all of his ideas but I found many of them to be fascinating, specifically his definition of true love.

This is an easy to read book that challenges traditional thinking around relationships and helps people debunk myths around how relationships are "supposed to be" - myths that we often unconsciously took on board as young children and because no one ever showed us the reality, we repeatedly failed to achieve the fairytale. Demartini offers people the process of getting real about relationships and accepting full responsibility for the relationships we choose to have in our lives. I highly recommend it to everyone who wants to have meaningful relationships, or want to help their kids understand relationships before they get 'serious' about finding the perfect one.

Great book. I have purchased many of Dr. Demartini's books and am always impressed with the information and how he presents it. He is on the cutting edge regarding Enlightenment. The Breakthrough & Value Factor are GREAT. But "The Gratitude Effect" of off the charts fabulous = life changing, and I have read it twice and often browse for a boost.

After having been in a lengthy marriage with an abuser, and a 2nd relationship that was similar, I felt i need to fix my issues. This book is helping me see my own issues within a relationship that caused some of my previous situations. Good read. and plan to have a session of the Demartini method to release and break patterns.

A collection of written instructions from Dr Martini's workshops that were difficult to understand. I suppose if one were to go to a workshop and learn these it would be better but on their own too difficult to understand written instructions only.

This book is a definitive guide to dispelling any fantasy notions we have about people, what they should be to us and how they should act in our lives, thus making our own lives happier. Useful for all types of relationships.

Excellent

Wonderful to read. It has changed my perspective about relationships. His ideas don't favour one side, but instead help you develop a more rounded understanding about why people behave the way they do in relationships.
