Whether you’re big on celebrating Valentine’s Day or consider it to be nothing more than hype, one thing’s for sure: High-quality relationships are an essential ingredient of quality well-being and one of the pillars of what we at IIN call primary food.
Relationships, of course, don’t have to be romantic. They can be bonds we share with anyone, like family, friends, coworkers, neighbors, clients, and most importantly…ourselves! What counts is taking time to nurture the ones that infuse our lives with joy and fulfillment.
So, in the spirit of love – whatever that looks like for you – we’ve curated our staff’s favorite pieces of relationship advice to celebrate the connections we share with important people in our lives:
10. You can either be in a loving relationship, or you can feel the need to always be “right.” You cannot have both. – Jon Fischer
11. All relationships are unique. Recognize the one you have, honor it, celebrate it, and don’t feel you need to make it conform to something that is not realistic. – Anonymous
12. For years, I had been told by several people to read The Five Love Languages. When I finally did, it was eye-opening. Knowing your partner’s love language and teaching them about yours gives you a framework for conversation and action when someone isn’t feeling the love. – Tori Roggen
13. Several pounds of respect and kindness, mixed with a cupful of listening with love, topped with holding space for self is my go-to relationship recipe. – Janet Verney
14. Some friends are here for a season, some for a reason, some for a lifetime – no matter what, treasure them while they’re there. – Mary Walsh
15. I have a few favorites!
16. Live and let live. – Jim Curtis
