With all of the technology available to us today it seems to keep us more connected than ever. That could be considered a good and a bad thing. The good part being that we can catch up with family or friends whenever we'd like, the bad being that we miss out of the simple joys in life because we are so caught up in our phones. What can also come with being so technologically connected is that we are far more stressed than we ever were before. Constantly checking our to-do lists, responding to emails, and keeping up on our social media accounts. It's exhausting! Here are some different ways you can relieve stress and start to reconnect with your spouse sans technology:
Talk a walk outside {leave your phones at home} and talk about your day
Teach each other how to play a sport {teach him a tennis swing & her how to throw a football}
Hit the jacuzzi with some friends to catch up
Go on a mini-date to grab some frozen yogurt
Plan a low key BBQ together in which you invite friends and family
When you both come home from work, charge your phones in the other room and talk over dinner
Kiss him/her more! {Become intimate more often}
Take an impromptu trip to the pool/beach/lake
Take a cooking class or learn new recipes together
Focus on giving service to one another {i.e. making lunch before he goes to work, helping to do dishes, doing laundry, helping with the kids}
Go on a bike ride and explore new parts of your neighborhood
Do you have any other stress relieving ideas that work for you?
