Fortunately, keeping your data secure is much easier than you’d think.

For many people, this time of year can be so joyful – spending time with loved ones and often those that live afar.
And yet for many couples, it’s also a time that can create additional distress and tension in a relationship. So many extra decisions to make and so many competing family loyalties. That makes for a not-so - enjoyable holiday season for all.
And if you are one of those partners feeling the stress, you are not alone.
To support you this year 'The Couples Institute' has compiled the best of our holiday stress articles and put them in an easy to read format. Click on the link below to download.
It’s called the Couples Guide to Holiday Stress Prevention: Learn How to Have Better Conversations, More Shared Chores, and Happier Family Time This Season.
I think it will help your holidays go better.
From setting realistic expectations to negotiating the many decisions and division of labour that’s needed, we’ve given you simple ways (and sample conversations) that you can use to improve the discussions you’ll be having soon.
You’ll also learn easy ways to deal with difficult and negative conversations with your spouse and family, reduce overwhelm, and build new positive ways you can improve your relationship with your partner this season.
I'm confident that if you put even a few of these tips to use, you’ll see an improvement.
The holidays are so much more enjoyable when everyone can get along!
