The Miracle of Connection

The Birth and Life of an Intimate Relationship

The Miracle of Connection by Daniel A. Linder, MFT — Book Cover

By Daniel A. Linder, MFT

The Miracle of Connection is a relationship training boot camp for anyone hungry to learn the secrets of deep, lasting connection. Drawing from decades of clinical practice and personal experience, Daniel A. Linder, MFT, reveals that the quality of your relationships is a direct mirror of your relationship with your Self — and that you can’t connect if you’re not connected. This groundbreaking book celebrates the sacred space of co-creation where connections are conceived and relationships are born.

Praise for The Miracle of Connection

From Taye Bela Corby / Spouse

I feel immensely proud, like I’ve earned 100 gold stars, for being the first student in earnest who’s been with you for 40 years!

Throughout our long journey together, the idea of developing a relationship with myself, a concept you always referred to, was a mystery to me. I often felt like a stranger within myself. However, I was okay with this uncertainty because I maintained a perpetual curiosity about the theme, and I refined the concept when I felt frustrated. “What is Daniel trying to teach me? It’s frustrating!” “Do I really have a relationship with myself? Who else would I be relating to?” “Is this why you love me? Because I always have something profound to share, and you see my authentic self every day?”

Over time, through gradual, incremental shifts, my relationship with myself underwent significant transformation. This was mostly because I learned to appreciate my own experiences, whatever they might be.

I found myself asking, “Is this what Daniel means? Is it time to have a relationship with myself?” I had no idea where to begin. This unfamiliar and uncomfortable space persisted for months, or so it seemed. During this time, I felt like I had landed on the moon or at the bottom of the deep blue sea. It was a dark, lonely place I had never experienced before.

This marked my first conscious effort to unlock the code to a more meaningful life. Having a relationship with myself became something I could control, and it was something yours and my relationship depended on. It was an “Eureka” moment for me. I delved deeply into why I operated the way I did and, to my surprise, found a unifying voice among all the other voices. That voice stuck with me, making me happier.

The Miracle helped me understand that our relationship is sacred, the space of co-creation is sacred and for the miracle of connection to be possible, I must be conscious and connected withing my, which I never was until I read this book.

After reading, The Miracle, I see myself completely differently, that I have this unique essence to bring to the space and just hope the person I’m with brings their unique essence, so I’ll continue hoping I get to experience more connection and intimacy than I ever thought was possible.

“Daniel has captured what is arguably the greatest human hunger: connection. Groundbreaking and compellingly readable.”
— Captain Robert D. Crossan II, Chaplain Corps, U.S. Navy (Ret.)
“His work on turning your Dial is worth the price of the whole book.”
— Loren Elliott, Photo Journalist
“I realized how disconnected from myself I was my whole life. This book changed that.”
— Bruce Toledo, Owner, Just Deals
