PONDER THIS: Can you keep your cool through a stressful day, but lose it later when little things in your relationship bother you?
RESEARCH SAYS: The greater the stress in our daily lives, the more reactive we are to normal relationship ups and downs. The key is to wash away our daily stress before we engage our loved ones, so we can come home ready to give and receive love.
TRY THIS: During your commute home from work, smile as you focus on a particular trait of your loved one that you truly value. Tell us how it changes the way you respond to them, when you see them again. When you pull into the driveway, if they are of age, send them a “gratitude text, email or snapchat” of what you value and love about them. Tell us how it makes you feel.
