How To Deepen Intimacy In Your Relationship – Lesson 8 – Experiential Intimacy
(James Dobson)
Welcome to Lesson #8 of my “How to Deepen Intimacy In Your Relationship” course!
Experiential intimacy is built by doing shared activities with your partner. It’s growing your memory bank, creating inside jokes, and enjoying time together.
When you do something new together, you can recreate that spark you felt at the beginning of your relationship.
Building experiential intimacy can be simple because the only obstacle is finding the quality time to share with your partner.
Experiential intimacy can be growth through simple things like getting involved in activities together. Shake up your routine and do something different with your partner!
Here are a few ideas to build shared experiences with your partner:
- Cook a new dish.
- Dance.
- Exercise together.
- Go bicycling.
- Go on a walk or hike.
- Read the same book.
- Sit in the garden.
- Solve a puzzle together.
- Take a painting class.
- Take an improv class.
- Travel somewhere new.
- Try a different restaurant.
- Watch a movie.
Show your partner that they are a priority to you by doing these activities without technology. Put away your phones or even implement “no-phone” areas at home.
Schedule the time and effort to do something new with your partner.
