Marital Enrichment & Pathway Towards Health

Marriage has been a great source of contentment and bliss. Such marriages have significant positive health implications. It becomes important for the spouses to be trained in techniques which can enrich their marital bond and thereby their health and well-being.

Human beings are hardwired to connect with other beings including other humans, animals and plants. Day to day observations show this behavioural connection as reflected through liking of pets, planting and connecting with trees and plants and other human beings. There has been much recent emphasis on the role of social relationships in our physical health and emotional health. The structure of our social networks, the support human receives from others, the quality and quantity of our social interactions and our feelings of isolation and loneliness have all been identified as predictors of health and well-being. Behaviour scientists including Psychologists have recently documented evidence of married people’s better physical health, longevity, psychological health, and reported happiness.
