When you think about the word “healthy” what comes to mind? Strong? Resilient? Enduring? A lot of times, when we read about how to be healthy and have longevity in life, it’s our bodies that are being discussed. But what about our relationships? Especially our marriages?

But the key is to make sure that you and your partner are doing all that you can to keep your connection emotionally healthy. If you’re curious about what that requires, here are the things that made our Top Six list.

About Shellie Reneé

Just a woman who digs all things relationships. HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS, that is. I've been writing (professionally) for close to 20 years, including having two books published. I'm also a marriage life coach and doula. Sometimes I speak to large audiences or do radio interviews, but usually I'm sitting in my favorite chair, surfin' the 'net and penning stuff that I wish I had read in my early 20s.

Listen, I don't have all the answers, not by a LOOOOONG shot. But whatever I can do to spare folks any heartbreak, bitterness or straight-up drama, I'll devote some keystrokes to doing.

That's it...in a nutshell. For the most part. Kinda. ;)
