It is said that in marriages, one of the partner dominates and the other may be little submissive. Almost always there are couples who are not very much like each other and suffer from many differences. But it is aptly said that marriage is all about enjoying your similarities and respecting your differences. But how many of us follow this golden rule that can create heavenly abode for all of us? Many will answer this in negation. The personal egos clash so very often that many marriages either end in a divorce or the partners live together just for the sake of it.

No wonder so many marriage counseling bureaus have cropped up to guide these couples gone astray. Do you think these counselors are of any help? Well, we do not say they are absolutely useless but the couples who have undergone the counseling sessions have different story to tell. They are not happy or one of the partners is not happy. This is the reason they have opted out of the counseling sessions too early before the ordeal is over. Yeah, we are saying ordeal because the expressing part of the counseling is often difficult for the shy partner. This in turn creates some blocks in the mind of this person and the counseling doesn’t work.

For all such couples, Dr. Ellen Kreidman’s “Light your fire” program is incredibly helpful and does not require anything on part of the couples except for hearing the program when they are free. No wonder the program is extremely popular and extremely beneficial for all the troubled couples, much more than marriage counseling! They now can compromise without defeat! What an achievement indeed!
