The Secret for a Happy Relationship or Marriage




Marriage expert John Gottman can sit with newly engaged couples for 15 minutes or less and predict with 94% success. The likelihood of whether that couple will be happily married or miserable and divorced.

what is his secret? How does he do it?

He says the key to relationship success does not lie in candlelight dinners. it is not found in trips to paris or horse and carriage rides under moonlit skies.
It is not found in getting your partner a different gift every other week.
And it is not found during long walk on the beach.

Gottman says the most important factor for a happy marriage is attention.
small moments of positive attention.
When i heard this, I thought about my mom. When i was six, she told me that it was the little things that make the big difference. And as i look back on my parents' failed marriage, i see that it was those little things that eventually became non-existent and if you're reading this now then i know it sounds reminiscent' cause it is all too common today on this planet that we take each other for granted. We don't know what we have until its gone we lose touch with those who mean so much by neglecting the things that are so small.

    Attention is so important, even if it is just putting down your phone for a few minutes and being in the moment with the one you love.

    You are right, little things counts but many have succeeded in categorising little things as nothing.

    Really attention is very important in a relationship, but I think above all there must be trust as well, it is the basis of everything

    I agree. Indifference is the beginning of a dying relationship.

    I think paying attention is the best way to understand what the matter is, and understand the early signs.

Health Benefits Of Tea

Image
Traditional tea contains  polyphenols  including catechins, flavonoids, and tannins. Polyphenols are plant-based chemicals that may provide health benefits. Researchers have linked consumption of  flavonoids , in particular, to outcomes including a reduced risk of cancer and all-cause mortality in certain populations. However, scientists advise that more research is needed to say for certain if flavonoids can provide these benefits. Some studies have also linked tea drinking to outcomes including improved sleep and reduced stress. But it can often be hard to determine if tea drinking causes people to become more relaxed and sleep better or if people who tend to be more relaxed are also people who tend to enjoy tea.  But tea does contain  L-theanine , a compound that is used for stress and anxiety relief. Lastly, tea is also linked to mental alertness and improved productivity. Tea contains  caffeine  which can increase alert...
