Book Description
The book that will change your relationships for the better! How MEN & WOMEN FIT, finally understand your partner with the 3 Brains theory brings a revolutionary new way of looking at interpersonal relationships and how we as men and women can change our communication and social skills. The 3 Brains theory (Head, Heart and Gut Brain) it is based upon connecting research that is done over the last 70 years. How our brains developed from early times, how they make decision and even more important in which hierarchy and how they communicate with each other. In this book you will discover how our 3 brains determine your and yours partners life, how they are in charge of our emotions, decisions, communication, listening skills and how we handle conflicts. So actually, how successful, meaningful and happy/healthy all of your relationships are. You will understand how our Head Brain provides us with logic and creativity, how our Heart Brain is the connector with other people and “drives” us with emotions like love, hatred and compassion and last but not least how our Gut Brain is in command of our survival and therefore, is able to overrule the other two. It is the “ME’ Brain. This is the killer of a healthy relationship if it is in command. I guide you through the 5 reasons why we are actually setup for having troubled relationships: Reason One: We misunderstand how our Minds (1 vs 3 brains) Really Work Reason Two: Our Gut and Heart Brain disagree about “ME” and” US” in Making Decisions Reason Three: The Equality Problem: We have been taught to dominate or to submit Reason Four: Gender Stereotypes: The Mars/Venus fallacy, the Hoax of Feminine and Masculine Traits Reason Five: We Underestimate the Power of Trauma/Abuse and Bullying And more important how to overcome those in the 17 rules and solutions for dealing with the 3 Brains. Furthermore I touch the topic how our 3 brains develop in children and teenagers and how to deal with that. Just like the topic we all like to know to how our 3 Brains are connected with sex or love making. We can all learn what our preference is, and also recognize which is our partner’s, friend’s, colleague’s or manager’s dominant brain. The beauty is we can educate our 3 Brains, they are not set in stone. My promise: Happy Healthy Relationships are possible Christoffel Sneijders What people said about it: Mª Teresa Alonso Jaén Owner & Founder of TLeadGo This book is a great guideline to build emotional connection and happiness. It brings a different perspective regarding gender differences and relationships, applicable not only to loving relationships but to family, business and friends’ relationships. It really breaks up the stereotypical thinking, so much needed to navigate with the speed of change in our current environment. We really need more than ever, to support and complete each other, embrace diversity, have an open heart, connected mind and feel centered. Leadership is all about being in coherence in the way we think, feel and act, which has a direct impact on the way we relate to others. By understanding how our three brains work, we understand ourselves and the ones around us in a better way and contribute to have healthier relationships, a healthier society. Thank you Christoffel for your contribution to make the world a better place to live. Highly recommended reading! Kris Borgaeve: The book gives a deep insight in how our brain(s) interact and store life experiences. Beyond the promise that is contained in the book’s title, I love the nuggets of insight because they help you understand yourself, and virtually anyone you connect with. Well written, spiced with catchy anecdotes and plenty of references. Stuart Padley: Its not just another self help book. It's special. Margaret Lawlor: Your book is fantastic Christoffel and would highly recommend and really enjoying my advanced training in clinical hypnosis you are so full of amazing insight and knowledge Michelle Vos-Castle: Love it Really interesting Read in one sitting Like the mix of you and science Is light but interesting

Book Description
If I asked you how much you really understand your partner, child or colleague, I wonder what would you score on a scale from 1-10. Higher or lower than 8? From all the people I asked, more than 90% scored eight or lower. If you are part of that 90%, then welcome, I’m grateful that you bought this book because this is the perfect read for you. My goal is to get your score to be 9+, and this book will help you do just that! I feel happy to share with you my contribution to impact society in a positive way with the book I wrote: “How MEN & WOMEN FIT, finally understand your partner with The 3 Brains theory”. It brings a new way of looking at relationships and how we as men and women can change our understanding & communication and change the world for better. It is based on the 3 brains we have: a Head, a Heart and a Gut brain (based on scientific research). You will discover how our 3 brains determine your and yours partners life and your decisions, your communication and your listening skills. How your head brain provides us with logic and creativity. With an immense database of all the logical things we have learned so it can do. A better future prediction for us. Our heart brain is the connector with other people and “drive” us with emotions like love, hatred and compassion. It is the “US” brain. Last but not least actually first we all have the Gut Brain; it is in command of our survival and therefore, is able to overrule the other two. It is the “ME’ Brain. My request is if you would join me to broadcast this message, for a better understanding and communication between people, creating more gender equality by transforming masculinity and femininity into the more neutral wording of Head /Gut and Heart Brain behaviour, and send out a signal how we could educate children and people more in a compassionate way instead of bullying or competition. You will find in my book the techniques/tools to communicate and understand the other better; It is based on the 5 reasons why we are stuck in the world we are living in now: Reason One: We misunderstand how our Minds (1 vs 3 brains) Really Work Reason Two: Our Gut and Heart Brain disagree about “ME” and” US” in Making Decisions Reason Three: The Equality Problem: We have been taught to dominate or to submit Reason Four: Gender Stereotypes: The Mars/Venus fallacy, the Hoax of Feminine and Masculine Traits Reason Five: We Underestimate the Power of Trauma/Abuse and Bullying I explain how our 3 brains operate, how you can work with them in yourself and with others, and how our 3 brains develop in children and teenagers and how to deal with that. We can all learn what our preference is, and also recognise which is our partner’s, friend’s, colleague’s or manager’s dominant brain. Even more important we can educate, adjust and align our 3 brains, they are not set in stone. By knowing how your three Brains work, you can create happy, healthy relationships.

The Love Gap

Languages : en
Pages : 335
Book Description
A research-based guide to navigating the newest dating phenomenon--"the love gap"--and a trailblazing action plan to help smart, confident, career-driven women find (and keep) their match. For a rising generation young women, the sky is the limit. Women can be anything and have everything. They are outpacing their male peers in higher education and earning the corner office at work. Smart, driven, assertive women are succeeding at just about everything they do--except romance. Why are so many men afraid to date smart women? Modern men claim to want smarts, success, and independence in romantic partners. Or so says the data collected by scientists and dating websites. If that's the case, why are so many independent, successful women winning in life, but losing in love? Journalist Jenna Birch has finally named the perplexing reason: "the love gap"--or that confusing rift between who men say they want to date and who they actually commit to. Backed by extensive data, research, in-depth interviews with experts and real-life relationship stories, The Love Gap is the first book to explore the most talked-about dating trend today. The guide also establishes a new framework for navigating modern relationships, and the tricky new gender dynamics that impact them. Women can, and should, have it all without settling.

You Only Fall in Love Three Times
Author: Kate Rose
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 0525542736
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
Discover the three types of love--and the key to finding the one you're truly meant to be with. We love and we love again -- sometimes our hearts get broken but, somehow, we find the courage to dive back in. In this soul-searching book, relationship expert Kate Rose guides readers down the path to a deeper understanding of who they are, what they want, and finally, to the discovery of their Twin Flame. According to Rose, love is a journey of self-discovery and every relationship we have in our lives teaches us something that we need to learn about ourselves and what will make us truly happy. She introduces readers to the three types of love we will all experience: The Soulmate introduces us to the dream of love, but somehow what seemed like it would be "happily ever after" wasn't meant to last forever. We are so consumed with making The Karmic Love work that we often fail to question whether it should work. As painful as it is to accept, this love that felt so right in the beginning is actually all wrong. The Twin Flame comes into our lives and often we don't even know it's love because . . . it's too easy. This is the love who helps us to accept ourselves just as we are because this is precisely what they do. In You Only Fall in Love Three Times, Kate Rose shows us that happy endings may not happen quite the way they do in fairytales-- but they happen nonetheless.

Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 450
Book Description
A breakthrough work in neuroscience—and an incisive corrective to a long history of damaging pseudoscience—that finally debunks the myth that there is a hardwired distinction between male and female brains We live in a gendered world, where we are ceaselessly bombarded by messages about sex and gender. On a daily basis, we face deeply ingrained beliefs that sex determines our skills and preferences, from toys and colors to career choice and salaries. But what does this constant gendering mean for our thoughts, decisions and behavior? And what does it mean for our brains? Drawing on her work as a professor of cognitive neuroimaging, Gina Rippon unpacks the stereotypes that surround us from our earliest moments and shows how these messages mold our ideas of ourselved and even shape our brains. By exploring new, cutting-edge neuroscience, Rippon urges us to move beyond a binary view of the brain and to see instead this complex organ as highly individualized, profoundly adaptable and full of unbounded potential. Rigorous, timely and liberating, Gender and Our Brains has huge implications for women and men, for parents and children, and for how we identify ourselves.

In a world where men and women are constantly told they are not different, His Brain, Her Brain shows couples what they instinctively know--men and women are different, and these divinely designed differences, when understood, make a marriage stronger and happier. Combining the latest brain research along with their experiences in over three decades of marriage and counseling, Dr. Walt and Barb Larimore explain how the unique design of each sex, particularly the unique brain and hormones of each, results in different habits, tendencies, and nuances of thought and action.
