As the holidays approach and the lists to Santa grow longer, there are several specific gifts you can share with your partner that don’t cost much financially but can reap significant dividends relationally.

Reminisce - first things first

Timeframe: 10-30min (or if you’re incredibly creative in your approach, add time as needed)

Think back to when you were first dating, what do you remember? Does anything stand out in particular? What were the highlights of those times?

Now, take that as your inspiration and consider ways in which you can share this as a gift to your partner. It may be playing the song that was in the background, or it could be re-creating the meal you had, or consider an artistic approach to the memory (a painting, poem, song, or drawing).

Perhaps your current relationship has moved further away from that idea or has grown stronger since then, even the smiles you may share as you reminisce together can be the gift.
