There's a secret that most people don't know: our self-image defines our relationship experiences with others. In The Love Habit, author and relationship expert Rainie Howard urges readers toward a better understanding of their relationships with family, friends, society, and themselves. Because a person's self-image directly influences their daily habits (emotional, mental, and physical), which then directly impacts relationships with others, Howard sets out to help readers change patterns that are no longer working for them. While many of us understand the effects of unhealthy relationships, we are often clueless on how to truly break free from them. This is because until we understand why people behave the way they do, and that we are actually subconsciously teaching others how to treat us, we are powerless at transforming this important area of our lives. To be in healthy relationships--whether with a friend, at work, or in a romantic partnership--we must first start with the relationship we have with ourselves. Without addressing this missing piece of how we relate to ourselves, we end up perpetually stuck in unhealthy friendships, romantic relationships, and more--but also engaged in a pattern of repeatedly inviting new unhealthy or toxic relationships into our lives. If you're ready to break free of the cycle of unhealthy relationships, The Love Habit is here to show you how.
