It's Always the Love

How Love Shapes Our Lives More Than Anything Else

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

It's Always the Love is an exploration of the deepest force shaping human life: emotional connection. Drawing on more than four decades of clinical psychological work, Henry Gobus reveals that love-far more than instinct, competition, or chance-is the organising principle behind human development, behaviour, and wellbeing. From infancy to adulthood, our capacity to love and be loved determines how we learn, relate, cope, grow, and make sense of our place in the world. Gobus explains, in clear and grounded language, how emotional attachment forms the foundation of resilience, confidence, compassion, and mental health. He shows how early relational experiences shape our internal world and how unmet emotional needs often manifest later as anxiety, conflict, relationship difficulties, or feelings of disconnection. Through this lens, many of life's long-standing struggles become understandable-and, more importantly, addressable. At the heart of this book is a simple but transformative message: much of what we experience, fear, desire, or seek in life traces back to whether love was present, absent, consistent, or unpredictable at crucial moments in our development. By recognising these emotional patterns, we can heal, reconnect, and change the direction of our lives. Compassionate, insightful, and deeply human, It's Always the Love offers readers a new way of understanding themselves and others. It challenges long-held assumptions about human nature, reframes common psychological problems, and highlights the profound power of emotional connection in shaping who we become-more than anything else.
