The Marriage Habit

Most couples don’t need more therapy—they just need better habits. In this fresh, data-driven book, the creators of the Marriage365 app reveal the practical secrets behind a relationship that lasts.

“These ten habits will take you on a journey that leads to a loving, caring, supportive marriage—the marriage you dreamed of when you got married. I highly recommend it.”—Gary Chapman, PhD, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The 5 Love Languages

Get ready to upgrade your marriage and life.

After fifteen years of helping couples through their Marriage365 app, Casey and Meygan Caston have gained tremendous insight into the common issues couples from all walks of life are facing and how they choose to solve (or not solve) them. In The Marriage Habit, they draw on user data and candid stories from couples around the world to offer a set of non-negotiable habits that successful couples use to maintain and repair their relationships.

In this candid and relatable guide, they show you how to implement simple habits that create massive results, such as:

• The power of offering a daily “60-second blessing” to affirm your spouse
• Taking regular “awareness inventories” to appreciate how your partner’s preferences, opinions, and differences are evolving
• Offering an unsolicited apology can break down walls of resentment and disconnection
• Removing assumptions and being clearer about the specific ways you want to be loved
• And more…

Focused on action and practicality, and filled with advice from a relatable couple who’s been there themselves, The Marriage Habit takes readers from striving to thriving, offering hope for couples in any circumstances to solve their own problems as they work to create the relationship of their dreams.
