- Know when to say no to volunteerism.
- Realize you're both only human and super beings. Take care of yourselves, both physically and emotionally. Walk together as a family.
- Plan time alone together. Make having date nights a priority.
- Get rid of the clutter in your lives.
- Look at your priorities. Work together to divide household chores.
- Slow down. Don't try to do too much.
