Saying "I Do" is Good For Your Health

Saying “I Do” is Good For Your Health

I absolutely LOVE when reports like this come out confirming what the members of this club already know. A happy marriage has far more benefits than simply making us smile each and every day. We already discovered through my travels that a happy marriage is a constantly flowing fountain of youth. We know having a partner that makes us laugh takes years off our lives (not to mention those fabulous endorphins it releases). And the fastest way to reach your dreams is to team up with your life partner. But maybe there’s a few facts you didn’t know.

Everyday Health posted an infogram on their website last week siting several new reports giving a glimpse into some of the other benefits to marriage. Click the image below to see their report.

Last night, Keith and I raised our glasses at the start of a dinner meeting and said “cheers” to a great life. This morning, we clicked our coffee mugs together and toasted to the start of a beautiful day. So here’s my encouragement to you to raise your glasses (even if it’s just ice water) in honor of your happy marriage and all the healthy benefits that come from it.

Until tomorrow…make it a great day!

Why I Love My Husband (the never-ending list):

111. Every breath he takes, every move he makes, every bit of his being, lives to make me happy.

112. We share a bathroom but the majority of the space is dedicated to my beauty products and he never complains (such is the life of our hubbies, relegated to one small cubby in the bathroom).

113. It took me 9 years to get him to stop using coffee as his means of drinking water (“I drink water, it’s just filtered through coffee beans” was his favorite response) but he knew how important it was to me so he now gladly drinks 8 glasses of day (which makes my heart happy).

114. We share a closet and although he’s much bigger than me and I tend to wear the same 3 outfits over and over, I still take up most of the closet. And he just smiles about it.

115. He still lusts after me and loves the curves in my body.

116. He allows me to be silly and act like a kid and never makes me feel weird or odd about it. I was an entrepreneur at a very young age so being given the opportunity to feel like a kid means the world to me.
