#50: How to Keep Love Alive: Real Practices for Conscious, Lasting Partnership

from Practicing Love: Have the Best Love and Sex of Your Life After 40 · host Shana James

What if love could actually get easier over time? And could deepen instead of fade?  In this episode, I'm joined by Ben and Kerena Saltzman — partners who don't just talk about conscious relationship, but live it. They share what they do to keep love alive, not by avoiding conflict, but by learning to love each other well.  They talk about how it can be intentional, even when things feel messy. We explore what makes your love become stronger and what becomes possible when you love each other well: Conflict doesn't slowly erode the relationship — it strengthens it You feel more on the same team, even in hard moments Intimacy deepens instead of fading over time You learn about each other instead of taking things personally There's more honesty, more aliveness, and more room to be fully yourself Even the painful moments become part of what brings you closer We talk about the courage it takes to keep opening your heart, even when it would be easier to shut down.  And why the couples who thrive aren't the ones who never struggle, but the ones who keep choosing each other, again and again. If you've ever wondered whether lasting, vibrant love is actually possible, this conversation will show you that it is.   Find out how to have the best love and sex of your life!   Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):https://uppbeat.io/t/prigida/burbleLicense code: ELRUV6G8JHUP8JAW
