Today’s Tip: Express gratitude for one you love.

Research shows that gratitude is one of the most powerful—and efficient—ways to strengthen a romantic relationship (or any relationship, for that matter).  Gratitude is relationship-strengthening because it requires us to see how we’ve been supported and cared for by other people.

Celebrate the one you love by detailing all the things that you appreciate about him or her.  Cut out a dozen paper hearts, and write one thing you are grateful for on each.
