Four Suggestions to Maintain a Healthy Marriage

January 11, 2010

Affectionate Lions

A friend told me that she and her husband strive to do the following four things each day/week:

1.  Go on a date each week (about 2 hours)
2.  Show of affection each day (less than a minute a day)
3.  Learn something new about your partner’s day (a couple of minutes)
4.  Help your partner reduce their stress daily.  Most effective de-stressor: Listening.  (approximately 10 minutes)

My husband and I felt that it would be worthwhile for us to make this small list a part of our daily/weekly routine and I thought others may benefit from these suggestions too.

That’s a great list! I think Rich and I usually do those things… but now I’ll be more conscious of it!

I thought so too! By the way, thank you for your Christmas card and letter.
