Struggling to feel deeply connected in your non-monogamous relationships? Whether you're navigating polyamory, open relationships, or casual connections, meaningful intimacy doesn’t have to take hours of deep conversations or elaborate date nights. In fact, it can start with just five minutes a day.
In this episode, I’m sharing five powerful yet simple practices from my Beyond Monogamy 4CNM Method that can help you build stronger, more intimate connections — no matter how complex your relationship landscape may be.
✨ Mindful Presence — Give your undivided attention for deeper connection.
✨ Mirrored Breathing — Sync your nervous systems to feel calm and close.
✨ Intentional Touch — Use non-sexual touch to foster warmth and trust.
✨ 5-Minute Check-Ins — Prevent disconnection with short, meaningful chats.
✨ Micro-Appreciations — Boost relationship resilience through daily gratitude.
Tune in now and discover how just 15 minutes a week can lead to 13 extra hours of intentional connection every year.
