Tips To Improve Your Relationship During 2022!
It’s the beginning of a brand new year, but for some couples, it can be the most pressured time. The two biggest reasons leading to this “relationship stress” during this new beginning are time and money, as beginning to prepare for a brand new year, certainly involves gift-giving and spending more time with family than we normally do.
The busier we are, the more our relationships suffer. We become over-tired, overworked, and lack the time to share special moments with loved ones…
This can put a certain amount of pressure on couples. Not only do you have to rush to the shops to get the new year gifts at the best prices, but you also have to consider planning on how to catch up with friends and family members.
So how do you get through these frictions and improve the intimacy between you and your partners? Consider these quick tips to help reignite the sparks and passion of your relationship!
Don’t Let Business Kill Your Relationship
With the passage of time, the mutual passion grows old, and other life commitments take over.
Most of us are familiar with the cycle. There are countless examples of couples driven to the edge by work-related stress. And psychological studies have shown that outside stressors — particularly stress at work — can push relationships to the breaking point.
Lack of time creates an unmeasurable distance between the two. This distance adds fuel to the fire.
We are social beings who tend to be happier when connected to others. Our romantic partner is, almost by definition, the person on whom we rely to provide support.
The LOVE-life and the WORK-life, you are in absolute charge of both the worlds. Manage them successfully as long as you keep them apart and detached.
Kick-Start Your Dopamine With New Experiences
It’s easy to see why this is crucial. Couples often fall into predictable routines – eating at the same restaurants, sticking to the same schedule, and engaging in the same sexual activities.
But by doing something new creates a feeling of union and affection. Think beyond the box and do an activity that might intimidate or excite you, like an amusement park ride or escape room. You’ll produce dopamine and reproduce the same feelings you had during the honeymoon stage of your relationship.”
According to experts, dopamine, produced by the hypothalamus, is a particularly well-publicized player in the brain’s reward pathway – it’s released when we do things that feel good to us. In this case, these things include spending time with loved ones and having sex. The romance chemicals in the brain are directly linked to physical attraction and romantic passion, which is why taking part in a new activity together can help ignite a turn-on.
