RIGHT NOW DO 3 THINGS & IMPROVE YOUR RELATIONSHIP: Couples therapy & relationships experts, Dr. Ray & Jean Kadkhodaian give their three tips that can immediately shift your relationship for the better.
1. Do something new and thrilling together
Couples who experience something thrilling together create a bond that releases sexual attraction neurotransmitters What we know about human beings is that when we share a heart pounding experience together, we bond, and in the case of couples, it can create sexual attraction - The mountain between us (2017) about a male doctor and female writer that get stranded in the mountains after their pilot suffers a heart attack and the plane crashes. 2. Surprises
We are not talking about just getting flowers or greeting cards for your spouse on special occasions. We are talking about random surprises, little gestures that show top of mind
