El arte de la pareja : encuentra tu felicidad a través de las relaciones humanas / by Llamas, Alejandra,author.(CARDINAL)611338;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 205-206)¿Cuál es el secreto de la vida en pareja? ¿Cuál es su propósito? ¿En verdad debemos vivir de esa manera? Y si es así, ¿qué hace a una relación feliz o funcional? Extracto del prólogo: «Este nuevo libro de Alejandra Llamas es brillante, lúcido, valiente, cargado de sabiduría. Es un libro enormemente útil porque enseña cómo hacer las cosas bien y cómo no hacerlas mal en el arte de vivir en pareja; es un libro supremamente valiente porque se atreve, desde la razón, a refutar y desbaratar tantos prejuicios, tópicos, lugares comunes y cursilerías que en nada contribuyen a la felicidad; y es un libro sabio porque no le sobra una palabra y las ideas se exponen con una delicadeza, una sensibilidad y una precisión yo diría que artísticas.»A book for finding fulfillment through human relationships. What is the secret to a relationship? What is the purpose of being a couple? Should we really live that way? And if so, what makes a couple happy and functional? If our choice is to live as a couple, we must live so as to awaken spiritually, to achieve personal evolution as human beings, and to learn what it truly means to love. But if we decide not to, we should know how to leave behind ideas that hurt us and make us feel inadequate or destabilize us from the social system. Being a couple or not is a concept: the ideal is to create a deep capacity to love ourselves and love others, with freedom and conscience. Alejandra Llamas has recognized the value of committing yourself to living a transformative life. She has been drawn to jobs in which revealing other people's light and strength is the basis of what she does, and she claims to achieve her own fulfillment by observing others freeing themselves from burdens and letting their internal magic shine. She is certified as a yoga teacher and life coach. She has published the bestsellers A Life Without Limits, The Art of Knowing Yourself, Life Mastery (coauthored with Gloria Calzada), and The Art of Educating. Alejandra Llamas is a high-profile mentor.

All too often society issues dire warnings about the risks of living single. But is finding a spouse or romantic partner really a requirement for a full life? In Single at Heart, Dr. Bella DePaulo speaks on behalf of the millions of people across the globe who are powerfully drawn to single life for all it has to offer and shares what it means to not just be happy being single for a time, but to be happy being single always. This pivotal volume addresses misconceptions about single life head on, spotlighting, celebrating, and supporting those who plan to stay single and sharing research, case studies, anecdotal examples, and more to help family members and friends understand. In richly engaging, evidence-based text, Dr. DePaulo—a Harvard-educated professor and researcher whose Ted Talk on the appeal of staying single has had more that 1.6 million views—supports readers of all genders, ages, and backgrounds who are Single at Heart and advises on topics as diverse as solitude, freedom, intimacy, children, and societal pressure. For Dr. DePaulo, her understanding of herself as Single at Heart provided strength, time, confidence, power, authenticity, deep fulfillment, and more. In Single at Heart she shares what she’s learned as well as the stories of others, in the process inspiring and fueling a movement of people standing up for what is right for them and thriving because of it.--
