An easy way to strengthen your relationship

Expressing gratitude is one of the easiest ways to strengthen your relationship. It’s quick, it’s free and it’s meaningful.We find couples so busy in this hectic life that they forget to pause and communicate appreciation and gratefulness. Often partners tell us they feel “taken for granted.”How often do you and your partner express gratitude in your relationship?We suggest couples create a Relationship Gratitude List for each other. Think about what your partner does “right.” Notice how you feel when you are making this list.Next read the lists to each other. Voicing your feelings of gratitude will increase your sense of connectedness and intimacy. William Arthur Ward said:

"Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is likewrapping a present and not giving it."
