You may often find it difficult to logically understand why a particular relationship or friendship did not last, or why families can be so incredibly different. But, as Thomas Moore explains, in his New York Times bestselling book Soul Mates: Honoring the Mysteries of Love and Relationships, “The heart has its own reasons.” Eloquently written, Soul Mates illuminates the presence of the soul in relationships. Through his words, examples from Greek mythology, and passages from great poets, Moore paints a picture of the workings of the soul in action within relationships. He explores the distinction between spirit and soul. He reveals the soul’s dual longings for attachment and detachment and explores the resulting tension. In Soul Mates, Moore encourages you to look beyond the rational/intellectual solutions to relational problems, and seek more soul-based solutions. Through Soul Mates, you’ll learn:

• How to recognize the presence of the soul within friendships, family, and marriage.
• About the dynamics of attachment and flight.
• Tips to help you honor the workings of the soul.
• About the soul in relation to sex and intimacy.
• To recognize and honor “soul cycles” including ways to weather the endings of relationships.
• Ways to reflect and examine the soul and to question and challenge your beliefs on relationships.
