7 Ways to Enhance Your Relationship


Summary


Great relationships don't just happen; they require effort and commitment. Many of my clients believe that if they have to work at a relationship, it's not the right one. This simply isn't true. Just as maintaining good physical health requires exercise, a healthy diet, and stress management, cultivating a thriving relationship necessitates conscious effort.

After 35 years of counseling couples, I've identified seven key actions that not only improve relationships but can also transform struggling ones into successful partnerships.

1. Take Responsibility for Yourself


The most crucial step in enhancing your relationship is learning to take responsibility for your own feelings and needs. Instead of relying on your partner to make you happy or secure, focus on nurturing these feelings within yourself through caring thoughts and actions. Treat yourself with kindness, compassion, and acceptance rather than self-judgment. Blaming your partner for your unhappiness only leads to problems. By taking full responsibility for your well-being, you strengthen the foundation of your relationship.

2. Practice Kindness and Compassion


Treat others as you wish to be treated. A harmonious relationship thrives on kindness, compassion, and understanding. Treating yourself and your partner with these qualities encourages mutual respect and love. If your partner consistently exhibits anger or judgment, focus on what would be loving for yourself. Remember, kindness does not mean sacrificing your needs. If your partner remains unsupportive despite your efforts, consider reevaluating the relationship.

3. Learn Instead of Control


In conflict, choose to understand yourself and your partner rather than resorting to control. We often try to control outcomes through anger, blame, or withdrawal, which only exacerbates conflict. Instead, seek to understand your fears and emotions, such as the fear of abandonment or losing oneself. By focusing on learning, you help heal these fears and grow emotionally and spiritually.

4. Create Dedicated Time Together


In the early stages of falling in love, couples naturally make time for each other. However, as life gets busy, this often diminishes. To keep the intimacy alive, set aside specific times to connect, talk, play, and nurture your relationship.

5. Focus on Gratitude


Positive energy flows in relationships cultivated through gratitude. Constant complaints can create a heavy, negative atmosphere. Shift your focus from what’s lacking to what you appreciate. Gratitude fosters emotional and physical well-being, reducing stress and promoting inner peace.

6. Incorporate Fun and Play


All work and no play can lead to dull relationships. Laughter, fun, and humor breathe life into partnerships. Embrace the lighter side of life and enjoy activities together to strengthen intimacy and connection.

7. Engage in Service Together


Participating in service projects as a couple can deepen intimacy and provide a sense of fulfillment and purpose. Giving back allows you to step outside your own concerns, fostering a broader, more spiritual perspective on life.

By committing to these seven choices, you’ll be amazed at the positive transformation in your relationship.
