What is the Build Your Marriage Journal?

The Build Your Marriage Journal is a joint journal that you and your spouse fill out together. You will find weekly prompts inspired by quotes that you and your spouse respond to separately. In addition to the weekly prompts, there are weekly actions for you to complete that take your journal prompts to the next level.

“This journal is a tool to help you and your spouse reopen and/or deepen the lines of communication between each other one week at a time. The prompts illicit unique responses to stimulate a more in-depth knowledge of you and your partner.

It leads to a deeper understanding of how you both think and feel. It begins to connect you more with each other in a way that leads to understanding. This understanding helps to diminish fighting and when fights do occur they can be discussed openly and resolved more easily.

All of this ultimately leads to increased intimacy both intellectually and physically with your spouse.”

Background

Growing up, my best friend’s little sister struggled immensely with interpersonal skills and behavior issues.  To help her mom out their psychologist recommended starting a journal to promote better and more meaningful communication between them.  It was a great way for each of them to share their feelings (and frustrations) openly and honestly without getting tripped up on words or risking interruption.

If you are interested in reading more about this method check out the following articles:

If a shared journal can help you communicate with a willful and often naïve teen, imagine what it could do for your marriage!  Unfortunately, if you search for a guided marriage journal you don’t find options that truly build your marriage.  Instead, they are about documenting the events that have already happened (or listing A-Z reasons you love your spouse).  Communication is key in any relationship and it broke my heart that something like Build Your Marriage didn’t already exist. 

It is so easy with the demands on your time to put building your marriage on the back burner.  That is exactly where this journal can help.  It has weekly journal prompts for husbands and wives to answer.  The prompts are then followed up with a weekly action.  Not only is it not all-consuming of your time, it is guided which takes the onus off of you and your spouse to come up with ideas.

Secret Project Reveal

by // Leave a Comment

Whether your marriage is struggling or thriving, you know the importance of intentionally building up your relationship with your spouse.  Books are so often the go-to resource when looking for tools to strengthen your marriage.  Today I’m letting my secret project out of the bag which as you can probably figure out will help you build up your marriage.  Before I tell you about the secret project, I want to tell you why I’m creating it.  Also, be sure to give me your feedback later in the post by commenting with your vote!

Last year, I went looking for an interactive journal that spouses could complete together.  All I found were journals to document your marriage or prompts to list out reason you love your spouse.  These are great and can be a lot of fun to look back on when you are retired and sitting on the porch with your spouse years down the road.  However, they won’t help you build a strong marriage that will get you to that future together.  To help you grow intimacy and see your marriage stand the test of time I am creating the Build Your Marriage Journal.

Passion for Marriage

In case you haven’t noticed, I absolutely love marriage!  It is incredibly beautiful and brave when you commit to journeying through life with your spouse.  I cry at every wedding I attend and just watching weddings in movies brings on the tears.  This is because I have an innate desire and passion to build up every single marriage.  That’s why you will find free resources like this marriage wall art and these marriage conversation cards on DIY Adulation.

Build Your Marriage Journal

The Build Your Marriage Journal is a unique new tool that helps your marriage not only survive but thrive.  It does this by providing weekly journal prompts for you and your spouse.  This journal takes it a step further by also providing a weekly action for you to complete all designed to strengthen your relationship with your spouse.

Why Weekly?

Even though your marriage should always be your top priority, I also get that you are busy and have a lot of demands on your time.  This weekly journal helps you make the time to build up your marriage without falling behind on your never-ending responsibilities.

Who is the Journal For?

  • Newlyweds who want to start their marriage off with a strong foundation
  • Marriages that are struggling right now and are looking for ways to find the time to build intimacy and rekindle with each other
  • Seasoned marriages that want to continue to learn about each other and forge even stronger bonds

 

It is time for the secret project reveal and a chance to give your thoughts!
