Healthy Relationship  Tips

Healthy relationships are effortless, if both the people involved take equal effort to maintain it．Here are a few healthy relationship tips to help you build the dream of your life．

1.                         

Communication is an art of putting your thoughts into words, so that they are exactly understood by the opposite person． Communication does not mean going on talking unnecessarily． This is the first mistake that couples make． One person in the relationship assumes the role of talker and the other becomes the listener． Their roles remain so forever． The talker  forgets to listen and the listener becomes used to listening and not reacting． If your partner takes time to open up, help them out by asking questions． So hear them out and give proper reactions．You will obtain the benefits of a healthy relationship through increased confidence in both of you to open up and hear things out．

2.                      

Regular conversations take the form of heated arguments amongst many couples． Understand that not every statement needs a reaction． Maybe a certain reaction may lead to an argument with your partner． Just agree with whatever ii is and there will be no harm done． Try and reach a  mutual（相互的） agreement． If that's not possible leave the topic for later． If you give it time, maybe both of you will be able to think about it rationally．             '

3.                        

Every single day is a blessing． Each moment with your partner is a moment to learn something new and discover the finer nuances （细微差别） of your relationships． Each one of us keeps changing every day, the circumstances around us change every day and with that our attitude also needs to change． The same applies when you are living with a person． Learning every day and taking every day as a challenge will help you perfect healthy relationship tips．

4.                        

This tip is especially meant for couples with children on how to maintain healthy relationships After a certain period, couples complain about romance being lost． To keep your relationship healthy, take some time out from your day-to-day routines to spend some quality time with your partner． This can be done as dinners, indulging in outdoor activities or just hanging out at a coffee shop like old times．

5.                      

         Respect has to be earned． It can only be earned only if you learn to respect． Often, one of the partners plays the role of a dictator to give orders, while the other simply follows． Both sides involved are equally responsible for this mistake, Learn to respect each other-and understand that both of you are equally responsible for the relationship．

Creating a healthy relationship takes equal effort from both sides． Sharing, caring, being     apologetic, forgiving and having realistic expectations are some of the important ingredients to the recipe of a healthy relationship．

Weighed down（压得喘不过气来） by study? Pushed to the limit by the fast pace of life? Frightened by the possible war? Well, you’re not alone. Men and women in France are seeking relief using the world’s best medicine─laughter.

In the past year, more than 25 laughter clubs have been set up across the country. People of all ages release their stress with an hour of group laughs. “People telephoned me and said they have forgotten what it is to laugh. They want to find a place where they can escape all their problems for a while. So they come,” said 40-year-old Jocelyn Le Moan. She usually takes a class of around 60 people through a series of laughter techniques.

Her pupils range from teenagers to 70 years old, but most are middle-aged white collars seeking 60 minutes of relaxation at the end of a busy day.

Le Moan takes them through the “Lion Laugh” and the “Laugh Contest”, where participants “speak” to each other in different ways. And instead of talking, they break into fits of laughter. At the end there are 15 minutes of “meditation”（沉思）,when they lie on their backs and let the laughs burst out of their mouths.

“I love it. It’s an experience that has changed my life. Through it I rediscovered the child’s laugh inside me,” said Romain Jourffroy, 24.

Like Jourffroy, many laughter club members find themselves changed into children again, and why not? The average preschooler laughs up to 400 times a day. The average adult only a sad seven to fifteen.

The physical benefits of laughter are already well-recognized. Doctors say the act of laughing releases good chemicals into the blood-stream, while the quick breathing that accompanies it helps massage（按摩）the digestive organs and strengthens the heart.

“A full hour is like having your insides go jogging! One finishes out of breath, but feels revitalized (产生新活力). And on top of that, you’ve had a laugh,” said doctor Alexisd Estaing.

And many participants in Paris also emphasize the psychological benefits. They believe that laughter is a way of making oneself feel more confident.

“Maybe it is because we are surrounded by so many troubles that we feel the need to keep laughing,” said Anne Maurigiano, a 29-year-old filmmaker.

Money Matters

Parents should help children understand money.   1     So you may start talking about money when your child shows an interest in buying things, candy or toys, for example.

1. The basic function of money

Begin explaining the basic function of money by showing how people trade money for goods or services. It’s important to show your child how money is traded for the thing he wants to have. If he wants to have a toy, give him the money and let him hand the money to the cashier (收银员).   2   When your child grows a bit older and understands the basic function of money, you can start explaining more complex ways of using money.

2. Money lessons

Approach money lessons with openness and honesty.   3    If you must say no to a child’s request to spend money, explain, “You have enough toy trucks for now.” Or, if the request is for many different things, say, “You have to make a choice between this toy and that toy.”

3.    4    

Begin at the grocery store. Pick out two similar brands of a product — a name-brand butter and a generic (无商标产品), for example. You can show your child how to make choices between different brands of a product so that you can save money,    5    If he chooses the cheaper brand, allow him to make another purchase with the money saved. Later, you may explain how the more expensive choice leaves less money for other purchases.

A. Wise decisions

B. The value of money

C. Permit the child to choose between them.

D. Tell your child why he can—or cannot—have certain things.

E. Ask yourself what things that cost money are most important to you.

F. Talk about how the money bought the thing after you leave the toy store.

G. The best time to teach a child anything about money is when he shows an interest.
