- Book - The 6 Pillars of Intimacy: The Secret to an Extraordinary Marriage
- Emotional IntimacyThis Pillar involves a closeness created through sharing each other's feelings, thoughts, and desires.This is both verbal and non-verbal communication. It’s more than just, “Can we talk?”
- Physical IntimacyThink of this Pillar as every type of loving touch. This can be holding hands, a hug, a kiss, or even cuddling.You were designed to be touched. It's answering the question, "How do you like to be touched?"
- Financial IntimacyThis Pillar is the sharing of your financial situation.It's developing a plan for your finances, from how much you spend on date night, to joint accounts, to planning for retirement. This is more than,"We need to talk about the budget..."
- Spiritual IntimacyThink of this Pillar as religious beliefs and observed religious practices. This can be as simple as praying together, going to church together, or discussingspiritual issues as a couple. This answers the question, "How are we spiritual together?"
- Recreational IntimacyWhat you do together at home, or on dates, or just for fun, is what this Pillar is about. It's the plans the two of you make to spend time together, doing things you enjoy. When this is working, you don’t sit in thedriveway playing the "What do you want to do?" game.
- Sexual IntimacyThis is the Pillar that encompasses everything about your sexual connection with your spouse. This can be romance, initiating, foreplay, and sexual intercourse.There’s no two ways about it: Sex is h-e-a-l-t-h-y. But this intimacy goes way beyond, "Hey, wanna have sex?"
