5 Golden Rules By Sri Sri Ravishankar For Long And Healthy Relationship 

1. Give Each Other Desired Space 

There must be a desire for love to develop, and longing requires some room. Love cannot flourish if yearning is suppressed or denied in a relationship, according to Gurudev Sri Sri Ravishankar. It's true what they say about how time apart makes the heart grow fonder. 

2. Don’t Be overly Generous, Let Your Partner Contribute As Well 

In order to keep the other person in a relationship from feeling totally unworthy, recognise the contributions they make to your life. Self-worth is necessary for love to grow, according to Sri Sri Ravishankar. According to psychology, this is also true in accordance with a phenomenon known as the Benjamin Franklin effect. It states that when someone does something nice for another, people like them more. Thus, don't be afraid to approach your partner for guidance or little favours.

3. Avoid Being Overly Fixated On Your Partner 

If you have a goal in life, your relationships will progress as you go in that direction. It will work if your relationship is your only priority, advises Gurudev. The concept is to live as a pair, but it's also about concentrating on personal development and accomplishments that will add meaning to your life.

4. Maintain A Feeling Of Respect In Your Relationship

Every relationship is saved by the reverence present in it. It is common to lack respect for the possessions you own, and this lack of respect might occur unintentionally. According to Sri Sri Ravishankar, reverence for ownership frees you from greed, jealousy, and lust. Thus, learn to be grateful for everything in your life!
