When we focus on joy in our relationship, we help strengthen our bond. When we listen, empathize, focus on the positives and celebrate with each other, we can increase intimacy, trust, satisfaction, and fun, to name a few.
If you’re ready to improve your relationship, there is no simpler way than to focus on the joy.
It’s the little things he/she does that matter.
An easy way to feel happier with your partner is to focus on what you enjoy about him/her. Rather than trying to change something, look at his/her best attributes. Does he make you coffee in morning? Does she let you sleep in on Saturday?
Think of all the little things your partner does for you that make you happy. Is he kind to neighbors? Is she generous with her time? Look at all the good your partner does and all of the things you enjoy.
When we focus on the negative aspects of a person, we can be blinded to the good, and only see the bad. No one is perfect, as we all know. So don’t focus on the missteps. Put your mind on happier, more pleasant matters, and you’ll feel happier, more joyful, than ever before.
Focus on the moment to feel more joy in your relationship.
It’s easy to get caught up in thinking and planning for the future. It can be easy to put your attention on anything else but what is right in front of you. But stop. Be in the moment.
Value your time together. Cherish the moments you have by giving them your full focus.
Celebrate joy with each other.
When you’re together, focus on the positives and celebrate them. Listen to your partner and share that joy. If he/she gets a promotion, that’s obviously a great reason to celebrate. But don’t forget about all of the little moments that can be celebrated.
Find joy in each day you’re together and celebrate. Share the joy and the happiness with each other. If you stuck to your healthy eating plan, hit all the green lights to work, or made a hot meal, share the happiness… congratulate your partner, do a happy dance, give a high five, ask questions and engage with each other.
We don’t need big reasons to celebrate. Celebrate life’s little moments to bring joy into your homes and your hearts.
When we celebrate with our loved ones, we feel more joyful, loved and appreciated.
Don’t wait for a big event to celebrate. Find joy in sharing a hot meal together on a cool fall night. Celebrate a quick bedtime with the kids. Small reasons are all around you if you start to look. Look for them and celebrate with excitement. Focus on the joy and celebrate your relationship.
