The Power of Touch
I have always been a “touchy feely” kind of guy so I have asked myself one day: “Is there really something to this idea of the power of touch.” I can recall certain instances in my life when I have seen this power displayed firsthand.
The Importance of Touch
Many studies have been done declaring the importance of touch in caring for infants and children, but what about in romantic relationships? When I say touch, I’m referring to the non-sexual touch - because without just the simple, but powerful touch of your hand (guys), you are not even getting to first base.
Stages of Love
Do we go through, unbeknownst to us, stages of love? Many couples feel like after the initial fire burning passion that love just sort of fizzles out, and all we are left with is accepting that we can just be good friends.
The Blind Side
I just finished watching the movie The Blind Side. You might be asking, “What does this have to do with marriage and family, or romance?” However, after seeing a film like this you realize that even though you may have big problems, you are actually pretty lucky compared to many in this world.

Top Ten Reasons Why You Should Use a Relationship Coach
So hopefully by now you’ve read my article on “What is Relationship Coaching?” Next, I’m going to give you some reasons why you might want to seriously consider relationship coaching to help improve your relationship.
What is Relationship Coaching?
Relationship coaching offers couples trained professionals who coach people to work on skills that will improve their relationships. There are also coaches for parents, families, and even singles who desire to have a relationship. The coaches do not necessarily have degrees in counseling or psychology, although some do.
Health Insurance vs. Love Insurance
A lot of people are talking about the state of health insurance and health care in this country. And that’s a good thing. Couples would do well to talk about “love insurance” for their relationships as well. What is love insurance? I’m glad you asked. Love insurance is an umbrella that couples have put in place to safeguard their relationship. Think about it. If people took the same amount of care with their love relationships as they do with their healthcare (assuming they are healthy) they might actually improve the quality of their relationships, and they might last longer (especially marriage relationships).
