The 'Marriage Jar' is a simple concept and it is amazing how this simple idea can adjust one's behaviour every day. Basically, it works like this: When you are first together, the metaphorical love jar is full. As time goes by, the jar empties. For every kind gesture, kiss, supportive comment, intimate moment, etcetera, two marbles go in. For every sarcastic remark, episode of not listening or avoidance of connection, five marbles come out.
At Ghita Therapy we have a real “Marriage Jar” for sale to remind you about the importance of your interactions. Why? Because couples are always asking if they can buy the one in the therapy room! The marriage jar needs to be replenished regularly. It should be cherished and fed daily so that it overflows and is not in deficit. This jar, placed somewhere very prominent (like the kitchen, lounge or bedroom), will remind you on a subliminal basis to make sure that your positive interactions far outweight your negative one's. It is a physical manifestation of the 5:2 ratio. It will keep your marriage communication on track inbetween therapy top-up sessions; just like happy photos of you in your home remind you of the love and intimate moments you share. *Freight not included $30 each Pick up jars from Ghita Therapy (Currumbin) by arrangement Video on Marriage Jars: https://youtu.be/ohjPiP8iL_M
