How can you improve your relationship

In this link- they picked three expert answers to improving your relationship. I picked my favorite answer but you can read the article yourself.

Lisa Oz answered:

Well, I do not think a long, in-depth self-therapy session is practical with every interaction, but there are a few key insights that are broadly applicable. To start is the idea of genuine presence. One of my favorite quotes is, "Wherever you go, there you are" from the movie Buckaroo Banzai. It has that delicious quality of being totally silly and shockingly profound at the same time. Realizing this fact, and living it, is probably the most important thing we can do to improve our relationships. Far too often, although we are physically with a person, our mind is somewhere else. Whether we are on the phone, listening to the radio, watching TV, or just caught up in our own thoughts, when we are not present in the moment - with the people next to us - we cheat ourselves and them of an pportunity to make a real connection.
Another important lesson is the necessity of practicing self-awareness, especially during conflict. The next time you find yourself in an argument, ask yourself what you really want and how your behavior is helping to meet those needs. The answer might not come to you during the heat of passion, but at some point, before you make yourself and someone else miserable, take a moment to create a safe place where you can be really honest with yourself. Once you have a clue about why you are choosing certain actions, see what changes you can implement to achieve your goals, regardless of what the other person is doing. Remember, it is all really about you.

The Secret to a Happy Marriage

Photography by Christopher Vlaun- Pastor Carlos DeJesus

by Julie Hanks, LCSW, for Sharecare
Are you empathetic? Is your partner? It might be the secret to a happier marriage. According to a recent study from Harvard University, being able to accurately read a partner's emotions--and believing that your partner is trying to understand your emotions--is related to couple relationship satisfaction.
This study highlights certain gender differences that echo dynamics I've seen in my clinical practice and in my 23-year marriage:

1. Women are more satisfied in their relationship if their partner accurately empathized with negative emotions.
2. Men were more satisfied when they could read their partner's positive emotions accurately.
3. Women's ability to read their partner's negative emotions was positively linked to both men's and women's relationship satisfaction. 

The authors suggested that for men, being able to understand and be empathetic to their partner's negative emotions may feel threatening to the relationship, but women don't seem to find negative emotions threatening. Findings suggest that effort, not just accuracy, positively impacts relationships.

Developing Empathy If your relationship is distressed or if you simply want to make a good relationship better, here are some ways to work on your empathy skills.
Listen for emotional messages The emotional message isn't the same as the words that your partner is saying. Your partner may be criticizing you for not spending enough time together, but the emotional message may actually be, "I miss you and I'm afraid I'm not important to you."
Push the pause button on your own emotions When your partner is expressing something critical, it's easy to respond defensively. Before reacting, take a deep breath and try to slow down your own emotional response so you can hear the emotion behind the criticism.
Reflect back your partner's emotional plea Instead of coming back defensively with, "What are you talking about? We just went on a walk yesterday, and we went to dinner last weekend!" respond to your partner's emotional plea by saying something like, "You really miss me and want to spend more time together. Thanks for letting me know. I love you."
Even if you read the emotional message inaccurately, your effort to understand your partner's emotions will pay off!

Tips on finding a Hotel in Miami Beach

3 Tips To Consider When Finding A Hotel In Miami Beach

If you are visiting Miami Beach in the near future or plan on visiting one day... Here are a few tips that will surely make your stay in Miami much more pleasurable; as well as affordable.

Tip #1: Book Ahead

This tip might be obvious to anyone who is a frequent traveler, but it is a crucial part of saving money and making your trip less stressful. Hotels in Miami Beach are usually booked well in advance and tend to be fully occupied -- especially during peak times of the year.
If you make your reservations at least four weeks in advance (or more) you can save a considerable amount of money on both flights and hotel rates.
Many hotels offer a % discount if you book early.
Why pay more for the same exact vacation when all you have to do is book ahead? Not only is it a crucial tip; it's also one of the easiest to implement.

Tip #2: Location

When choosing a hotel in Miami Beach and an overall location, you must first determine what the main focus of your trip is going to be. If you are traveling on business, you will obviously want to stay somewhere that is relatively close to where your business meeting/convention is. Or you may want to find a Miami Beach hotel that has the best price; if your company is not paying for your lodging.
However, if you are coming to Miami for pleasure or vacation -- You will more than likely want to stay directly on the beach. There are many places to stay along the beach from North Beach all the way down to South Beach and then some.

Tip #3: Hotel Price

For some people, the price is the most important determining factor as far as which hotel in Miami they end up lodging in. There are many affordable hotel deals in Miami Beach, but personal preference is also a factor in my opinion.
Let's say you're comparing two different hotels that have similar rates; but one of them is directly on the beach, while the other is more in town. The prime choice would be the one on the beach of course, so price wouldn't necessarily be the ONLY factor in this decision.
The point is, you will want to find the place that has the most features and amenities, while also having the best price.
These three tips can help you decide where you want to stay and remind you of what the most important things to look for are when visiting a hotel in Miami Beach, Florida.

Questions you need to ask before getting married- Asking the Officiant

Infinity Weddings & Events, LLC, of South Florida

786-427-5360

I met a wonderful couple at Starbucks on SW 8th Street. I realized that they had very few questions as to what to expect from their officiant. I mean after all, a notary or officiant is the 3rd most important person in the wedding, besides the bride and groom.

They did have some basic questions-such as,how much do you cost, are you available. This had me thinking that there are more questions one should have when you are hiring the one person you have to have for your wedding.
So I decided to compile a list that you can use to help you select the person who will make your marriage legitimate.

If you want to get married in a church or a place:

~If I am not a member of your congregation, will I need to join?

~If yes, what do we need to do to be members?

~If I chose to marry at a different site, will you perform the service?

~What, if any, denominational regulations or traditions will I need to adhere to?

~Is there a premarital program that I will need attend?

~How long is the program and how much does it cost?

~Will there be any other ceremony after?

~ Any restrictions regarding, Candles or special lightning, flowers or decorations, dress, music, petals, rice, bird seeds?

~Will parking spaces be available?

~Is there a church fee/ donation?

~Can we have it in another language?

General questions to ask from any officiant:

~Will I be allowed to edit or create my own vows?

~How long will the ceremony last?

~What time would the vendors be able to come and set up?

~How many times will we need to meet before the actual day?

~Will you be present for the rehearsal?

~Is there an extra charge? What is it?

Of course add more questions as needed, but this should get you on the right path.
Remember when you are getting married you need the bride, the groom and the person to marry you.
