6 WAYS TO IMPROVE COMMUNICATION IN YOUR MARRIAGE

Communication in marriage is fundamental. It underlies every area of your marriage, from sex to finances, faith, emotions, and more.

Unfortunately, marriage doesn’t come with a manual. It takes time and effort (and plenty of mistakes) to learn how to communicate well with your spouse.

But you can avoid a lot of frustration and pain by establishing a communication framework in your marriage.

And there’s a specific tool to help you do it.

The Main Communication Challenge in Marriage

On your wedding day, you and your spouse became one. But the truth is that the two of you are still your own individuals.

You are different people.

This is a good thing. You each bring your personality, skills, and experiences to the marriage. But this two-ness is also what causes challenges in your relationship.

You both entered marriage with your own ideas, opinions, dreams, and goals. You view and approach things differently.

And you also communicate differently.

As a result, the main communication challenge you’ll face is that you’re not speaking the same language.

You might both be speaking English (or another language), but you don’t have a shared vocabulary to discuss what you’re experiencing as husband and wife.

Without a shared language, you can’t express the tension you feel. You don’t always have the words to convey your wants or needs. You may struggle to understand each other.

The way to have a shared language is to establish a communication framework—a system you both understand that helps you communicate effectively.

How do you create this framework and learn to communicate better with your spouse?

The answer lies in The 6 Pillars of Intimacy® Black Box.

6 Communication Areas in Marriage

The 6 Pillars of Intimacy® Black Box contains all the tools you need to develop a communication framework in your marriage.

It’s how you and your spouse start speaking the same language. You will now have a name for connection and disconnection.

You’ll develop a new vocabulary to discuss the things happening in your marriage. And the Black Box will show you how to incorporate it into your daily life.

In The 6 Pillars of Intimacy®, you’ll learn the framework for how to improve communication in all 6 areas of your marriage.

Emotional Intimacy

First, a communication framework in marriage helps the two of you strengthen your emotional connection.

We all desire to be known, seen, and valued, but most people are never taught how to have hard conversations in marriage.

It’s essential to know how verbal and nonverbal communication leads to deep emotional intimacy.

Physical Intimacy

Second, a communication framework in marriage helps the two of you strengthen your physical connection.

Your body was designed to touch and be touched. Without physical intimacy, your marriage can feel like a relationship between roommates.

You have to learn how to communicate with your spouse about the non-sexual, loving touch you crave.

Financial Intimacy

Third, a communication framework in marriage helps the two of you strengthen your financial connection.

Money fights are the second leading cause of divorce.

Knowing how to talk about finances with your spouse (even if it feels uncomfortable right now) is crucial for a long-lasting marriage.

Spiritual Intimacy

Fourth, a communication framework in marriage helps the two of you strengthen your spiritual connection.

Faith is an area of life that many consider personal, but when you are married, spiritual intimacy is an opportunity to be vulnerable with each other. In some ways, it can be more intimate than sex.

You have to define what spiritual intimacy means for the two of you and then find ways to grow together.

Recreational Intimacy

Fifth, a communication framework in marriage helps the two of you strengthen your recreational connection.

Recreational intimacy is built by doing fun things together and creating new memories. Spending quality time with your spouse and continuing to date them is key.

When you know how to talk about recreational intimacy, you can prioritize it in your daily life.

Sexual Intimacy

Sixth, a communication framework in marriage helps the two of you strengthen your sexual connection.

As a married couple, you have to talk about your sex life. There’s a lot to discuss, including frequency, variety, initiation, foreplay, using toys, mismatched libidos, and more.

Learning how to talk about sex can be awkward, but it is worth it.
