It is perfectly normal for every relationship to have its ups and downs, in fact these small bumps in the road are a great way to learn about your partner and how you can adapt and move forward together. However, there are times when a relationship may begin to develop unhealthy patterns such as distrust, bullying, resentment and result in someone shutting down. This is when couples counselling is important.

Go to my website to download your free worksheet called ‘Areas of Change’. You and your partner can use the worksheet to learn what each other needs from the relationship, your commonalities and where you feel there is need for improvement.

When you put everyone else first, you risk loosing yourself. It takes away from who you truly are.

Some couples feel they must do everything together, or alternatively there may be one partner in the relationship who resents the other wanting to pursue their own separate hobbies/friends.

This can lead to a break down in the relationship with one person feeling trapped and the other feeling resentful.

Hearing the phrase ‘you are just over reacting’ can make you see red and often results in either a fight or the accused shutting down. When tempers flare, it is time to walk away. Take some time out to regroup, asses your own feelings and try to look at the issue from the other persons point of view.

Dr Tony Fiore's Quick Tips:

Write down your feelings and talking points, this will give you a reference to turn to as in time of stress we can often forget what we wanted to address.

Look for points that you can both agree on and focus on them as opposed to the negative.

Always try to end on a good note. The conversation can always continue the next day when you have had time to sleep on it, gather your thoughts and calm your emotions.

Stress can sneak up on us, gradually building bit by bit until something innocuous tips you over the edge and you loose your cool.

Understanding how your body reacts to stressors, especially before the feeling builds, provides you with cues to help you learn to manage this before it gets out of control.

Next time you feel yourself experiencing stress, take note of the muscles in your body, your heart beat. Are you raising your voice? Is your mouth suddenly dry and your movements erratic?

These are all telltale signs of stress and when we begin to learn how our body reacts in the very early stages, then we can learn to recognise and manage it.

Stress guarding your life may seem overwhelming at first but by using the skills I teach through my website, you can understand your own bodies flight-fight response and take control of stressful situations.

Did you know that money is one of the biggest generators of arguments and resentment in long-term relationships?

With the prices of gas, food and interest rates sky rocketing, it is very important that you and your partner are open and honest about your spending and saving goals, however it can be stressful to initiate that conversation.

Money doesn’t have to drive a wedge in your relationship. Try scheduling a weekly meeting to relax, catch up with one another and discuss your finances, money goals and any concerns you have. This is a great way to ensure you both remain on track with your spending/saving and express how your finances are affecting your relationship, both positive and negative.

Ask each other what you feel is working and what needs improvement. If you approach this with the right attitude, your weekly meeting will be something that you look forward to, not an ordeal that you dread.

We all have those nights when we lay our head on the pillow and as soon as we turn off the lights, the worries from decades past rear their ugly head demanding attention and robbing us from sleep.

Loosing even a few hours sleep a night can lead to feeling less tolerant, quicker to anger making it difficult to cope with frustrating situations.

Here are eight things you can do to help improve your sleep:

1. Avoid alcohol, large meals, exercise and smoking at least two to three hours before bed.
2. Turn off from work and technology at least an hour before bed.
3. Go to bed as soon as you feel tired. If you wait too long, it will be harder to fall asleep.
4. Avoid watching TV or reading an exciting page-turner in bed.
5. Go to bed at around the same time each night. Ideally this should be before midnight.
6. Sleep in a dark, well ventilated room.
7. Deep sleep is the phase of sleep where you benefit most. It happens in the first third of your sleep. Avoid environments where you could be disturbed during this phase.
8. Aim for seven to nine hours of sleep per night

We all have that voice in our head that speaks to us, narrating our thoughts and feelings. In times of stress and worry, our narrator can turn against us, belittling and becoming our own worst enemy.

Learning how to talk kindly to ourselves, or self-talk, is very important when trying to break this destructive cycle.

Take some time today to find three things about yourself that makes you happy and if you choose, share them with your partner. Ask them to share something they are also proud of. Sharing positive feelings about ourselves helps boost our self esteem and creates a time for bonding with our significant other.

Nothing that makes your heart drop quicker than hearing the words ‘I’m fine’ when you know that something is very wrong.

Those two simple words have so much hidden meaning and can make you feel sick to your stomach. Sometimes your spouse may not be able to communicate their feelings or want to admit their vulnerability, however there are occasions when this phrase is used in a more passive aggressive manner.

How many fights stem from the simple need to be right? When partners become overly critical of each other, something very small can snowball into anger, resentment and cause a rift in the relationship.

To find harmony in a partnership, you must first learn how to understand a concept I call the ‘theory of mind’. This is the ability to understand perspectives, opinions, beliefs, desires that are different from your own.

I teach you how to apply my techniques to your relationship with my practical skill building audiobooks to keep anger from jeopardising your marriage or relationship.
