TAKE THESE FIVE STEPS TO HEAL YOUR STRUGGLING MARRIAGE

 1. Identify What Made You Fall In Love:

It's heartbreaking when you think about how madly you were in love with your partner and how damaged your marriage has gotten. Look back at what you once adored and cherished about this person. Thinking back to when times were good helps to lift your spirits and eventually heal your broken marriage.

2. Revisit Shared Goals And Dreams: Overtime, couples may drift apart because their goals and dreams evolve or change entirely. Reconnecting with the aspirations you once shared or discovering new ones together can reignite the bond. For instance, if you both once dreamed of traveling the world but got sidetracked by life's responsibilities, start by planning small trips. This small act of aligning your visions for the future can bring you both closer and help fix your struggling marriage.

3. Fix Yourself First:  When thinking of how to mend a broken marriage, remember that it starts with us. It's easier to point fingers and list all the things your partner lacks, but marriage is not like that. You also need to reflect on yourself and work on it first. You have to be sure of yourself and be complete so that your partner won't have to carry your weight in the relationship.

4. Get To Know Each Other Again: Sometimes, busy routines are a big factor behind a crumbling marriage. Because of our hectic schedules, kids, stress, we wake up one day and our spouse is no longer the one we used to know.  Start creating more time to spend with your spouse again, learn the changes that have taken place in each other and adjust to them.

5. Start To Listen To Each Other Again: Have conversations again with one another. Listen to what your spouse is telling you. Make it a point to listen to your partner, try to understand what they need. This is one of the most important things you can do to fix and save your struggling marriage.
