Most relationship problems are essentially trust issues, explains psychotherapist David Richo.

"Most people think of love as a feeling," says David Richo, "but love is not so much a feeling as a way of being present."

Drawing on the Buddhist concept of mindfulness, How to Be an Adult in Relationships explores five hallmarks of mindful loving and how they play a key role in our relationships throughout life.
