Good relationships are the main source of joy in life. We reveal 15 secrets that will help strengthen relationships with a partner, friends, children, colleagues and yourself.

From time to time, even the strongest and most harmonious relationships fail. We can avoid this if we devote 60 seconds a day to relationships with loved ones.

Strengthening relationships with partners

1. Hug and hold your loved one for 60 seconds

Touch stimulates the production of the hormones oxytocin and dopamine, which are responsible for attachment and pleasure. The feeling of warmth and joy will be with you throughout the day, as if you were wrapped in a warm and soft duvet.

2. Send a message about what you like about him or how good you were together

Remind him of the bright moments of life together, and you will charge him and yourself with positive energy.

3. Remember what kind of drink, snack or dessert he likes.

Go to the store to buy it. Little tokens like this are important to a relationship. People like it when they are taken care of and their tastes and preferences are remembered.

We pay attention to friends

4. Send a friend a simple short message

You can write: “Today I heard your favorite song on the radio and realized How long I want to see you. I miss you and hope to see you soon.»

5. Send your friend flowers for no reason.

Attach a card to the bouquet, which will say How long she means to you.

6. Leave a friend a voicemail

Like where you sing or talk about how you feel about him. He will listen and smile.

7. Put a note with a funny emoji in your son’s or daughter’s lunchbox

It is important for children to feel your love and protection.

8. Lay out familiar food in the form of a funny picture

Even emoticons and hearts bring a smile.

9. At dinner, praise your child, tell him what traits of his character you admire

Having received a compliment from parents, the child will go to bed in a good mood. Such moments are very important for strengthening family relationships and are remembered for a long time.

Making connections with colleagues

10. Buy a treat for your team

It can be something simple and inexpensive: cookies, donuts or chocolate. Joint tea parties contribute to good relations in the team.

11. Send a Thank You Message to a Colleague Who Helped You

Write «Thank you» in the subject line. The addressee will certainly read such a letter.

12. Thank your boss sincerely

Bosses are rarely praised, and they are pleased to know that they are valued, respected or loved.

Don’t forget about yourself

13. Make a list of seven things that make you happy.

Try to do one item from the list every day for a week.

14. Pay for a cup of coffee to the person who entered the cafe after you

Giving is better than receiving. This gesture will make a stranger smile, his smile will warm your heart, and your day will surely turn out well.

15. Write down five of your positive qualities on a small piece of paper.

Put in your wallet. Every time you pay, reread what is written on the sheet. It boosts self-esteem and improves mood.
