[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Do you wish you had a closer relationship with your husband? Do you secretly wonder if it’s too late? This is the show for you!

Leah speaks with Lori Palatnik, worldwide lecturer and author of Turn Your Husband into Your Soulmate to get the scoop on love and soulmates, and why it’s never too late.

What is love, really?

Lori explains that there are 3 definitions of love according to Jewish tradition.

1. 1. 1. Love is the emotion you feel when you focus on a person’s virtues and identify that person by those virtues. (From R’ Noach Weinberg) 

         So really, love is a choice! You choose every moment to focus on the good in the other person.

         But what if you feel like your husband is the source of all the problems in your relationship?
         
         Leah points out, “believing that robs you of your power.” She says, “take ownership of what you contribute to your relationship issues and feel the power you have to make changes!”

         Marriage is oneness. A husband and wife are two halves of one whole.

         You chose your spouse because you were attracted to the half you are missing.

         And that same half is the part about your husband that makes you nuts!

      2. Love is “what’s important to you, is important to me”. (From R’ Noach Orlowek)Your husband might love sports. You might not. But you show love when you choose to show interest in his interests.
      3. Love is giving. (From R’ Eliyahu Dessler)
         
         The more you give, the more you love. That’s why it’s so easy to love your children (usually 😉). We are constantly giving to them.

      Leah chimes in, “this is a beautiful recipe and when you try it you WILL feel the difference!”

      Lori adds: Husbands get pleasure from their wife’s pleasure. Their job is to make us happy, and our job is to be happy. So we need to help them understand what makes us happy!

      Here are three areas to put time and effort into (the more it’s a struggle, the more time it needs!):

      1. Do you have the same meaningful life goals? Meaning, do you have the same idea of what your life and home should look and feel like?
         1. Don’t make your goals about your kids — they eventually leave! You give to your kids so that they’ll leave; you give to your husband so that he’ll stay!
      2. Physical attraction — what can you do to amp things up in this area?
      3. What does respect for your husband look like on the most basic level? When you’re on the phone, and your husband walks in, you say, “Sorry, got to go greet my husband. Talk to you later.” Click. There are two exceptions:
         1) A genuine emergency.
         2) It’s your mother-in-law!

      When you treat your husband like a man you respect, he will become a man worthy of your respect.

      Your outer actions influence your inner self — so fake it till you make it!

      TRY THIS AT HOME:

      We can’t control the canvas of our lives. We can only control how we frame it.

      So get creative and reframe an aspect in your relationship in a positive way!
