The 4 Agreements
I love the book by Don Miguel Ruiz, The 4 Agreements. In my private practice, I use these agreements as a foundation to help couples stay on the right track or reset when needed. They are simple agreements to make, but they are not necessarily easy to keep. These agreements are not meant to be used as a way to judge one another or hold each other emotionally hostage, but rather they are intended to help create a foundation for success
The 4 Agreements
Be Impeccable with Your Word
Don’t Take Things Personally
Don’t Make Assumptions
Always Do Your Best
Don Miguel Ruiz is the author of The 4 Agreements, and I highly recommend his book if you’d like to dive deeper into them. There is also a 3-book boxed set available that digs even deeper into the agreements and also offers insight into the 5th agreement. I’ll have to write more about this topic soon, as it has become such an integral part of my work with individual and relationship clients.

When you apply these 4 Agreements to your relationship you set the foundation for a fulfilling and honest connection with your spouse. I explain how you can use them in my latest video.
In the video below, I give you a good overview of The 4 Agreements from a high level to introduce them to you. Then over the next few weeks, I’ll be digging into each of them with a deeper dive to really help you start applying this framework to your life and your relationship.
You can harness the power of The Four Agreements and apply them to your relationship. Check out my overview and grab your FREE Relationship Communications Guide to take the first steps towards the strong and enduring relationship you deserve.
Be Impeccable with Your Word
Speak with Integrity
Say only what you mean
Avoid using the word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others
Use the power of your word in the direction of truth and love
Don’t Take Things Personally
Nothing other do is because of you
What others say and do is a projection of their own reality
When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won’t be the victim of needless suffering
Don’t Make Assumptions
Find the courage to ask questions and to express what you really want
Communicate with others as clearly as you can to avoid misunderstandings, sadness, and drama
With just this one agreement, you can completely transform your life.
Always Do Your Best
Your best is going to change from moment to moment. It will be different when you are healthy as opposed to when you are sick
Under any circumstances, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse, and regret.
Relationship Communication Workshop Updates
I have created an online Relationship Communication Workshop to help you dig into the communication struggles in your relationship and start getting things back on track. I have had a number of participants submit reviews and suggestions of different lessons that would be a great addition to the workshop. I want this to be as helpful as possible, so I have decided to listen to the feedback and expand the course to include even more relationship guidance.
There is an entire section that will be devoted to understanding even more about the love languages. I will also be providing you with more details into how to manage them in relationships.
I realize that not everyone wants to go through long-term therapy or the process of getting to a therapy appointment may not fit into your busy schedule. That's why I created this course. I wanted to provide you with a way to get access to the tools my clients get from me in my practice, but you can access the material from the comfort of your own home or wherever you are.
