Jealousy can be one of the most frustrating emotions that you’ll face in your relationship. It can drive you to insanity. But what if you’d found a way to turn that jealousy upside down; what if you could derive pleasure out of situations that used to drive you mad? 

Blogger, researcher, and author Marie-Claude L’Archer wrote the book on compersion, a relatively new term in the polyamorous community that means just that. Compersion is the act of deriving pleasure from seeing your partner happy with another person. And guess what? It’s not just for polyamorous folks. You can start accessing this emotion in your monogamous couple today, and we’ll show you how. 

What you’ll learn about Compersion (or why you should care):

• How to derive pleasure from seeing your partner happy with another person

• How getting your needs met will make everything better for everyone

• Dealing with insecurity in your relationship

• Ways to get your needs met through various avenues lead to happier relationships
