Affection is one of the most valuable ways to connect in a relationship, and in this episode of the Intimate Marriage Podcast, Dr. Alexandra Stockwell talks about its importance and how couples can revive affection in marriage. Whether affection in your marriage is dwindling, or you're looking to establish it for the first time, this episode provides a roadmap to enhance your emotional and physical connection through reviving affection.
Dr. Alexandra emphasizes the importance of clear communication, discussing desires openly as a couple, and stripping affection of any transactional nature, especially tied to sexual intimacy. She shares insightful, effective strategies to reinvigorate touch and tenderness in your marital relationship.
Tips in this episode:
Don't wait for your partner to read your mind. Be the first to extend affection in a calibrative, gentle manner that suits your current relationship dynamic.
Have a conversation with your partner about wanting more affection, ensuring you both are aligned so it doesn't come as a surprise when you start touching more.
Redefine affection as an end in itself, not just a prelude to sexual activity. Enjoy the intimacy of simple, non-sexual touches.
Engage in an exercise where each partner showcases the type of affection they prefer, promoting mutual understanding and harmony in touch.
