The Royal Couple's Rx For A Happier Marriage!

                    Simple Solution For More Happiness! 

You may have heard, Prince William and Duchess Kate will be visiting the U.S.
Nothing unusual about that, they visit a lot of countries.
But what may be unusual are the things Will and Kate do to ensure they'll 
still be married 50 yrs. from now.

And those things are...
a) Share a sense of humor-
Couples who joke with one another, watch comedies together and
just be silly around one another are more likely to make their 
marriage or relationship last.
b) Become Friends First-
This may seem foreign to a lot of people, but Will and Kate actually 
met at college, became friends and then started dating.
And all of this took place over a ten-yr. period.
No, meet at a party (or a bar) and then head off to
the nearest bedroom or car (the backseat).
As some people say, a good relationship is like a
well made tomato sauce (or gravy) it needs a lot of time and
attention to really develop into something. Don't treat it
(your relationship) like a microwave meal.
Important tip: This is something Will's mom and dad didn't do. Prince Charles
and Princess Diana.
c) Hit The Sheets-
No, not that way, but you may want to go to bed at the same time.
New research says that women feel higher levels of satisfaction when
their sleep schedules sync up with their partners, and this may be
the real reason Will and Kate may make it last for 40 or more yrs.
Going to bed at the same time fosters intimacy and gives each partner
the opportunity to catch up on the day's event.
So, if you think about Kate's wardrobe or how she's dealing with
morning sickness, you may want to spend some time thinking about
her secrets for success. Marriage success.

And if you want more great tips like these, head on over 
to Amazon.com/ the kindle store and type Will and Kate, The Royal Secrets For
A Long-Lasting Marriage into the search bar.
Download it and get started on your own fairy tale marriage.

Good Luck!

Hollywood's Rxs For A Happier Marriage!

                   Happiness Secrets To A Longer and Stronger Marriage! 

Hollywood may seem like the last place anyone would want to take
marriage advice from,  but you can really learn something.
That something:
Look at successful couples like Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson,
and Kevin Bacon  and Kyra Sedgewick.
Couples that are the happiest and longest-lasting know a few
things about making a marriage work that other couples don't
know, and if you look below, you too, can learn the secrets that
Tom and Rita and Kevin and Kyra know. 

a) Cheer Each Other On-
In Hollywood, if both people have acting careers it takes something
extra special to make the marriage work. And if one person is more
successful, it can really take some work. 

So, that's why it's important that you put egos aside and cheer each other 

on. You already know that being supportive when things are bad is
extremely important, but make sure to do it when things are going great.
Researchers say that couples who respond energetically and positively
during good times (a job promotion or losing weight) are generally
happier with each other.
2) Bring Back The Date Night-
Kids, jobs, aging parents, fatigue, on and on. If this is your life,
it's probably okay to assume that you don't have time for each other.
And if this is the case, it's time to bring back "date night." 

Doing things together, (without the kids, pets or parents)
stimulates the production of the attraction hormone dopamine and when 

you do things together, you associate the resulting "high"
with each other. So, start dating again.
3) Go Ahead and Fight-
Are you the type of couple that brags--"we never fight?"
Well, researchers say it's okay to fight, (not physical of course)
but disagreeing about bills or politics is quite alright.
Expressing anger, instead of holding on to it is better for your
health, and lets your partner know what you really feel about
certain situations. Just make sure to keep the fights to a minimum.
4) Separate Dates-
Do you feel that taking a separate vacation or a night out with
friends will cause a breakup? Not true, in fact, it may save your marriage.
Doing something on your own, like taking a pottery class or
working on cars with your buddies, builds self esteem and makes
you happier. And feeling happier and more accomplished
results in happiness at home. 

That's it--simple solutions for a strong marriage.

last for a long time. Continue reading and discover some ways to
keep your own relationship strong, healthy and happy just like

a) Show Affection-
Difficult for the royals to do with all of the papparazi around,
but it's possible. Say nice things to one another, hold hands, and
give gifts for no particular reason. When you do and say nice things
for one another, your partner will be inspired to reciprocate, which
creates a positive and loving atmosphere.
A fun fact: Kate and Will are the first royal couple to kiss-twice
on the wedding balcony.
b) Respect The In-Laws-
Ah, In-laws they're one if the most common sources of marital conflict
and imagine if you're mother in-law is the Queen of England? 
Kate and Will have taken big steps to become close with their spouse's
families. Support from all sides of the family is a big key to making a
relationship a long-lasting success.
Be kind and gracious to your in-laws (even if he or she is difficult),
compliment them on their cooking, wear their "homemade" gifts,
(a cap that was knitted) and accept their tips and suggestions
on everything from child rearing to cooking.
c) Show Some Support-
Kate is often home alone due to the fact Prince William is still in the military,
but he makes sure to call and tell her "how proud and grateful" he is
of her for standing by him.
Showing support by saying thanks more often, and giving encouragement
verbally and nonverbally whenever possible.
d) Laugh More-
The benefits of laughing are endless...you'll feel less depressed
and enjoy better heart health. And new research says that couples 
who are playful and laugh together are better able to deal with stress
and are more likely to stay together through thick and thin.
So, do like Kate and Will and enjoy a good laugh together and
keep the sarcastic comments to a minumum.
e) Stay Friends-
Simply put, Kate and Will were friends (for 10 yrs.) before they were actually
married. And even though they're now married, they remain friends
as well. So, find out what's happening in your spouses' (friends') life,
ask how their day went, support them in their hobbies or working life
and just be there when they want to vent or complain about traffic
or a coworker.
f) Do Some Good Together-
William is taking after his mother, he's involved in worthy causes
and his wife is also getting involved. Helping others creates a "feel good" 
effect that gives your relationship a big boost.
If you want to get involved with your spouse in causes that'll  help
make the World a better place, go to VolunteerMatch.org and learn
what's available.

That's it- some tips to make your marriage a success for one year or
for 50 yrs.

Good Luck!
