So true! Are you making time for creating new memories. Pay attention to what brings you joy! 🥰

"So often, people with the best intentions understand that 'relationships are hard work,' and they work so hard that they forget to make time for hopes, dreams, play, and just plain fun," writes Certified Gottman Therapist Laura Silverstein, LCSW on the Gottman Relationship Blog. Joy, fun, and adventure are just as important to prioritize in your relationship as deep conversations and addressing challenges.

How do you find joy and adventure in your relationships?

According to Gottman’s research, It’s the small everyday moments of connection that matter most. How will you turn towards your partner today?

How often do you turn towards bids for connection in your relationship? 💞

Bids are requests for connection. They might take the form of an expression, question, or physical outreach. No couple is attentive 100% of the time, but regularly showing interest and attention can work wonders for your relationship.

Here is your reminder to be kind to yourself and invitation to practice it as often as you can. 💕

The Power of Being King to Yourself 🙏🏽

• More and more research is showing that self-compassion is a key to living a h life.
• Self-compassion is a source of strength and resilience

The 3 Elements of Self-Compassion:
1️⃣ Self Kindness: we are as caring towards ourselves as we are to others
2️⃣ Recognizing Our Common Humanity: When we understand that we are not alone in our pain through a moment of connection with others and that it is a part of the shared human experience
3️⃣ Mindfulness: Being open to the reality of the present moment [yes, you are here], acknowledging our suffering without exaggerating it

This is a common fallacy in relationships. If you are interested in learning the difference between perpetual and solvable problems, please like this post. You may also want to checkout relationshiprevive.net. ❤️

Conflict isn't a death knell to your relationship. 31% of the problems in a relationship are solvable, and the rest are perpetual problems that need to be managed. That's why we talk about "managing" conflict, rather than "resolving" conflict. Trying to solve unsolvable problems is counterproductive, and no couple will ever completely eliminate them. However, discussing them is constructive and provides a positive opportunity for understanding and growth.

Those little arguments often run deeper. If these statements resonate with you, consider communicating this with your significant other. Check out https://relationshiprevive.net for an opportunity to invest in your relationship.

At the root of a lot of relationship conflict may be the following:

• I need to know that you’re there for me
• I need you to take interest in me
• I need your support
• I need to know that I matter to you
• I need to know that you care
• I need to be treated with respect
• I need to feel desired by you
• I need to feel heard
• I need to feel safe with you
