Episode 3186:
Dr. Donna Rockwell shares what a quarter century of marriage and her work as a clinical psychologist have taught her about keeping love vibrant long after the wedding. She offers a short list of do's and don'ts for newlyweds and draws on a Buddhist teacher's insight that anger passes like clouds while love stays behind them. It is mindful marriage advice for keeping an open heart through every stage of a relationship.

Quotes to ponder:
"Love is experienced, in the moment, as a spontaneous opening of the heart."
"Anger passes, like clouds in the sky, so rather than indulging its allure, we can simply watch it pass by instead, like a cloud."
"It isn't about being good enough; it is about learning how to keep an open heart."
