Rob Thomas was at his wit’s end. It seems everything he said to his beloved wife to draw her closer just ended in disaster and disappointment. He saw this incredible woman pulling away and nearly every word that came out of his mouth made it worse.
And then he reflected on the first moment when they truly connected while in college. She playfully bet him a dollar that she could kiss him without touching him. He took the bait. And then she leaned over and kissed him in a way he would not forget! She then pulled a dollar from her pocket and said, “I guess I lost.”
It was the kiss that changed everything. So, Rob began to explore what might happen if he STOPPED TALKING and began a gentle campaign of nonverbal communication. Reaching her in ways that conveyed his love without the misunderstandings or missteps that words risked.
You’ll discover the incredible results in his new book Wordless Connection: Deepen Intimacy Without Saying a World Even if You are Married. Doing frequent nonverbal acts of love, it healed and transformed his near-on-the-rocks marriage into something solid, deeply connected and satisfying for both of them.
And not just for Rob and his wife! Rob then conducted experiments across the country with couples from all walks of life. And the results were consistent. A global business consultant, he also incorporated what he was learning into his work with executives and company employees.
Make no mistake, the book is not about sexual intimacy, although that may be the outcome. It’s about the connection between couples that deepens their love and facilitates openness, vulnerability and trust. Whether it’s a long-married couple with work and kids that have distracted from the relationship and lost the romance, to a young duo who are still trying to understand each other, Wordless Connection provides the tools that eliminate the dissonance and create alignment.
Rob provides specific directions on how to enhance the feelings communicated in massage, hugs, kisses, handholding, eye contact, winking, smiling, grooming, arm around the shoulder and managing personal space. –Yes, there is a right and a wrong way—if the intention is to deepen connection!
Rob specifically zeros in on five categories that have the most impact—holding hands, hugs and kisses, notes of care, unexpected acts of service and massage. Intention, duration and frequency are specified because this guidance is not a one-time fix…it’s about building a lifelong bridge directly into someone’s heart. These acts are designed to transform the giver from an “agenda” which is all about what you are getting,, to focus on your partner’s needs and wants and the essence of the pairing as a whole He says, ”Our relationships are like a garden and our actions with our significant other are how we tend that garden.”
Rob touches on the science that supports many of the methods he proposes; he offers examples and testimonials by others of the impact implementation had in their lives, and, most of all -- you root for Rob, as you are along for ride as he tests his theories, healing and enriching the relationship with his wife.
Rob also offers insight into:
• The challenge of resisting the urge to speak
• How to introduce Wordless Connection without arousing suspicion
• Filing our Love Power Bank so we can convey the love we feel
• The significance of Moral Beauty
