Mental support during COVID 19


We are lucky people as we have got ample time to spend with our spouse during this lock down or quarantine period. During this period many couples would have recreated their endless time which they spent for their spouse initially in their early days before or after hook-up. This quarantine would have created a better chance to know about your spouse! 

Spending quality time with spouse

Togetherness blooms when you start spending quality time with your spouse through patience listening. Join with them and help in household chores like, plan together on what to cook for a day, and understand the work pressure of your spouse too, go for a walk in the garden talk about your day, do workouts together, watch movie together and talk about your life experiences etc,. 

The spouse has to create a wavelength in which the partner understands the other partner, if there is a outbreak of misunderstanding its the responsibility of the partner to pay active listening to it and understand his/ her point in it. Play with your spouse, fight and laugh recreate the days you missed. 
Surprise your spouse with a gift or something materialistic or non materialistic thing it can be. Even a sense of touch also surprises, give a hug and tell your spouse that how much he/she is special to you, etc., Just gazing of eyes everyday is not enough to make a relationship healthy.

Personality differences

Accept the personality of your partner as it is, because it provides freedom in the relationship. Neglect judging your spouse at any point during a conflict. Express the mistakes through healthy conversation avoid arguments. As healthy conversations have the essence to develop a relationship whereas argument builds gap in the relationship. Anticipate the difference of opinion and never try to underestimate the other partner. Bring changes together little by little in your relationship. Support your partner without prejudice as it gives a security and feeling of being unconditionally loved.

Healthy sexual life

Sex has always been a part of healthy relationship. Sex and health goes hand in hand. While involving in sex your stress level decreases, reduces anxiety and depression due to the impact of chemical reactions happening in the body increases compassion and creates a bond with your spouse, improves your sleep after the intercourse and the immune system gets strengthened and improves mental health too. Sex is a part of sharing your love with your spouse.

Role expectation

Being a couple discuss and decide the things you do in common. Understand the personal boundaries of each other and stay supportive without interfering in it unnecessarily, to make a relationship healthier personal freedom is mandatory too. Explain the issues and get it solved then and there. Apologies are mandatory as it builds trust and love a way high. 

Never try to dominate your spouse respect each others opinion, appreciate your spouse then and there and be supportive to each other. Conflicts occur but way you tackle to keep the love alive matters. Thing before you speak! Play your role truly and love your spouse wholeheartedly. Your mental health will be better if you are ready to open up and willing to change!

These will help you to lead a healthy life during this period as all know the condition around the world.
