With Valentine’s Day approaching rapidly, many people are busy making plans to do something special with or for their partner. How do you acknowledge and share your love for your partner for the other 364 days in the year, though?
Too often, clients express their desire to set aside time with their partner more frequently in order to connect deeply with them, commemorate their relationship and accept their partner’s love in return. Most, though, tell me of roadblocks to achieving this (work stress, COVID anxiety, chores and routines, childcare, favourite show is on telly, too tired and so on).
Whilst the realities and pressures of everyday life are undoubtedly getting in the way, I recommend that couples dedicate at least 30 minutes per day to each other – to re-connect, to express gratitude for one another, to enjoy each other’s company. Such time requires coordination and planning and should be distraction-free. Put away your mobile phone, turn off the telly. Schedule dinner for a half hour later. Engage, talk. Make every day in your life a Valentine’s Day.
