Renew your marriage and reignite the spark that started it all. Do you feel like your children are the only thing you can talk about with your spouse lately? Do your everyday conversations inevitably turn into blown-up arguments? Is there something you'd like your partner to do in bed, but you can't bring yourself to ask them? At a certain point, marriages can feel stagnant as couples get stuck in the rut of daily life. There are children to take care of, financial obligations to meet, and professional duties to fulfill. It can feel like your marriage is the last priority for the both of you. Eventually, this neglect can affect your interactions, from your chats over breakfast to your intimate moments in the bedroom. It may manifest itself in intense fights or maybe just awkward silence. Either way, it can take a toll on your marriage. By improving your relationship, it will benefit not only your family life, but also your work life. Researchers from Hong Kong Baptist University have found that satisfying marriages have a positive effect on an employee's ability to be creative and think of innovative solutions. This can lead to better work performance, and consequently, promotions and pay increases. Oftentimes, all it takes to improve your marriage is to recognize the problem, as well as for the two of you to commit to doing something about it. Doing it alone isn't easy, but that's where having an experienced guide to direct you through this process makes the journey a whole lot less complicated.

Dear axolotl: Why do you have feathers growing out of your head? Axolotl: They aren't feathers?they're gills! They let me breathe underwater. Let's face it. Even as babies, we humans pay close attention to faces. Observing another person's features and expressions tells us whether they are happy, angry, excited, or sad. And when we look at an animal, it's hard not to imagine that its face is communicating human feelings. This isn't true, of course.
