Need to connect more often?
With busy work schedules, family and friends to see, and maybe even kids to raise, it can be hard to find time to connect with your partner.
Well, there's gotta be away. But how?
One of our most important pieces of advice for couples is to create Rituals of Connection, which are predetermined activities that you and your partner choose to do together:
Go for a short walk every morning, or have breakfast together.
Have a stress-reducing conversation in the evening.
Make a monthly date night at your favourite restaurant.
Or even spend five minutes before bed saying thanks for things you've done to support each other.
It doesn't really matter what you choose to do, as long as both you and your partner enjoy it, agree to it, do it regularly and consistently, and find that it brings you closer together.
Create as many rituals as you'd like, both big and small. Once those rituals are built into your lives, then you'll have created reliable ways for you and your partner to connect.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
