About the Book

For couples who want to stay deeply connected for the long haul, How to Train a Happy Marriage transforms timeless Buddhist wisdom into a simple, practical weekly practice for moving beyond conflict and resentment toward lasting love.

In How to Train a Happy Marriage, Scott Snibbe uncovers how to build a love that lasts, offering practical tools to heal conflict, resentment, and fading intimacy. Drawing from his 25 years of Buddhist practice, Scott distills ancient wisdom into a modern system for couples seeking enduring connection.

At the heart of the book are two simple tools:

· Six transformative questions for partners to ask each other weekly that foster mutual understanding, empathy, and reconnection.

· One powerful promise to never say anything intentionally hurtful to your partner—and immediately restore connection when you do.

Scott shares stories from his own marriage and others’, tackling topics like transforming anger, mismatched desire, and healing from trauma with warmth, humor, and unflinching honesty. Unlike conventional therapy models that emphasize communication styles, attachment histories, or behavioral techniques, this book focuses on how to genuinely meet your partner with compassion, curiosity, and self-awareness in the moments that matter most.

How to Train a Happy Marriage is both a personal love story and a spiritual guidebook for anyone seeking a relationship that doesn’t just survive—but thrives.
