"Keeping It Safe" is a sequel to Dr. Bill Austin’s book Creating Our Safe Place. This book continues with articles about what is needed to have healthy and satisfying relationships. The author offers advice for safe relationships where each partner can be loved unconditionally; where they can grow and change; where they can claim and develop their own unique potentials and gifts, and have the intimacy they desire. Dr. Austin presents such topics as why we keep picking the wrong partners, the issues that lie beneath most arguments, the difference between independence and interdependence in relationships, ways to accept ourselves unconditionally, dealing with difficult people, ways to handle stress, and ways to empower ourselves. Some of the interesting titles are “Your Dog Can’t Swim,” “Three-Legged Chicken,” “Don’t Forget to Eat Your Spinach,” and “Goat Snatchers.”
