Sneak in some romance

With the hustle and bustle of the holidays, it’s easy to be busy. Don’t forget to take some time for you and your significant other.  

Sneak some romance in wherever and whenever you can - a little kiss under the mistletoe;  breakfast in bed before the kids wake up;  a little late-night make out session.

 “your hand

touching mine.

this is how

Three simple steps to sneak in some romance

Touch

I’m not talking sex here. The simple act of touch like a hug or a caress, builds the foundation for a long relationship. Set aside time to touch your partner.  It can be a massage, a couple’s workout, even a simple walk in the park arm-in-arm. Increase your intimacy and partner satisfaction, by keeping that physical connection.

Fun

At the base of any good relationship is friendship. Keep the spark alive by incorporating play into your day-to-day lives.  Smile, joke and have fun with each other.  Try a new adventure together or stay home with a deck of cards. The only requirement is that you actually want to do it. 

Laughter

There is a reason they say laughter is the best medicine.  In addition to the endorphins and serotonin, laughter helps with social bonds and improves the quality of our relationships.  Want a better relationship – laugh with your partner. 

To recap –

• Take some time to touch your partner
• Give yourself time off from being a grown up and have some fun
• And don’t forget to laugh
