Woman & Home

Why you need a MARRIAGE MOT

After years with the same person, marriage can feel a bit like your favourite jumper – familiar and comfy but a little dull and frayed around the edges. Wish you could get back some of the excitement and feel closer to your partner again?

Meet Sarah, an embodiment coach, and Matt Davies, a psychotherapist and psychosexual therapist, who are happily married and have known each other for 25 years. Based on personal and professional experience of a variety of relationships, they have co-authored a book* about the secrets of lasting love.

‘Research around couples who think that they’ve found The One shows they are often more complacent and believe they are automatically going to stay together,’ explains Sarah. ‘This means they don’t make as much effort to look after their relationship and nurture it.’
