Studio 5 contributor and licensed therapist Julie Hanks, LCSW shares meaningful gifts of self to give your spouse this Christmas.
The most meaningful Christmas gifts don’t require much money, but do require thought, time, and awareness. Though it’s fun to shop and wrap gifts, we ultimately all wish for the same emotional gifts from our spouse — things that can’t be purchased – gifts of self. We all long for reassurance that we are loved and cherished, for comfort when we are sad or hurt or scared, and for validation that our experience matters to the person we love the most. Even if your husband doesn’t have the words to express these wishes, he longs for the same emotional gifts too. Here are some ideas to get you started thinking less about gifts you can buy and more about gifts you can offer from your heart.
1. Gift of Emotions
Tell your emotional truth
Too often, in an effort not to hurt your spouse’s feelings, you may have stopped expressing the full range of emotions – your hurts, your fears, your anger and your joys, and dreams. “I don’t want to be a nag” or “I ‘m supposed to be nice and happy all of the time” are common phrases I hear in my therapy office as reasons women stop expressing themselves. It’s helpful to consider that intimacy means “into-me-see” or see into me. True intimacy requires a deep level of emotional honesty and the tender expression of a full range of emotions, not just the good, happy, nice ones. Your thoughts, your feelings, and your expression of them are what make you uniquely you.
Ask for what you really want (more…)

The Mom-Stuff Blog Tour is visiting Lolidots this week. Robin is a small town girl with a great sense of humor. Her blog is an unexpected extension of her Boutique that has been a wonderful experience for her. Robin loves doing the product reviews and hosting the fun giveaways for all of her readers. She is starting to be more comfortable with the main page of the blog and really enjoying it. The creative outlet is nice to have but, what she enjoys the most are the friendships she has made through it and because of it. So go visit Lolidots and become one of her new friends,
Today we want to share her post on relationships’.
**First, let me say that if you don’t understand the title of this post then I demand you go out and rent (or totally just buy) The Princess Bride.Posted by Robin Haws at Lolidots
I was going to do another post about Lost, what with it being D-Day and all. Then I thought about my dear readers who maybe are not counting down the actual minutes to the show tonight. With that and the thought of all the Lost posts that will inevitably appear once the show starts, I got the ol’ noodle crankin’ and am going to take a crack at something else. Bear with me here. I’m not sure where it will go. (more…)
