One of the simplest, most peaceful ways to maintain a loving connection with your partner is to sit together in silence. This beautiful yet seldom used practice brings forth compassion for one another while simultaneously strengthening the bond between you. Something magical happens when two people who love each other sit together in silence. Defenses drop and hearts open up. Frictions ease and love flows. It's ironic, but true, that one of the best ways to lovingly communicate is to do so without words.
