Description

In this next episode of Amplified Marriage, We return after a hiatus to continue our series on the "6 Pillars of Intimacy." As we usher in the new year of 2025, our conversation focuses on an often-overlooked aspect of intimacy in marriage—physical intimacy beyond sexuality. We explain how simple actions like hugging and holding hands significantly enhance a healthy marriage relationship. Such gestures nurture love and trust, forming the foundation of a lasting relationship.

Key Takeaways:

  • Developing non-sexual physical intimacy is crucial for nurturing emotional and relational bonds in a marriage.
  • Simple daily actions like kissing, hugging, and hand-holding can significantly reduce stress and increase happiness through the release of oxytocin.
  • Building a strong foundation in friendship and connection is key to sustaining a marriage through challenging times when physical intimacy might be limited.
  • Open communication and understanding personal preferences for physical touch can help strengthen non-sexual intimacy and, by extension, the overall marriage.
  • Modelling healthy physical intimacy behaviours for children is crucial and serves as a testament to the health of the parental relationship.
