Did you know that some studies show that you need as many as 12 hugs a day to thrive?

If you and your spouse are having an "off" day, where you have one misunderstanding after another, or perhaps your fuses are shorter than normal, take a few moments to HUG. Hug for at least 60 seconds (the longer the better!)

Hugging releases a hormone called oxytocin, which is related to reduced stress and increased happiness. If you're having a rough day as husband and wife, you definitely need as much as you can handle!

Pucker up, buttercup! It's International Kissing Day!

Kissing can triggers release of happy chemicals in the brain, can lower cortisol (the STRESS hormone), and can even help reduce blood pressure.

And yes, it does burn calories. But as with any exercise, the more you give it, the more calories you burn. 😉

Smooch your spouse!

Did you know that today is I Forgot Day?

No? We didn't either. We forgot 😉

But how often do we get upset with our spouses when they forget something that was so important to us? It's a common issue among couples, so don't think you're alone. But here's one way you can handle those situations with less anger.

Always assume positive intent.

You and your spouse chose each other. You committed to love and cherish one another. So why do we think that our spouses do things that upset us on purpose, assuming it's because they don't care? They promised to love us, so let's give them the benefit of the doubt.

When we assume that our spouses love us and never intend to hurt us, it makes it easier to talk through the challenges that arise in everyday married life.

What are some other ways you handle arguments with your spouse?
