A
FTER 13 years of marriage,
Bethany Meola acknowledges
she and her husband can get
mired in the midlife chaos that comes
with navigating careers and raising
three children.
That’s why the six-second kiss felt
so good.
A daily intimacy exercise pio-
neered by couples therapists and
clinical psychologists John and
Julie Gottman, the six-second kiss
is what it sounds like — taking a few
moments out of each day to connect
physically with your partner.
“It’s kind of a funny thing to put on
the to-do list,” said Meola, who first
learned of the Gottmans’ work while
studying for a theology master’s de-
gree focused on marriage and family.
Even when it felt a little silly, it
made a difference.
“It’s long enough to kind of ground
you and say, ‘Here’s this other person
that I love that I’ve committed to,’
and you’re resting in their presence
in kind of a renewed way,” said
Meola, co-founder of the non-profit
Life-Giving Wounds in Bowie, Md.,
which aims to help adult children of
divorced or separated couples.
Why does six seconds
matter?
Six seconds is not an arbitrary
number, John Gottman said during
a joint video interview with his wife
and collaborator. The couple married
in 1987 and co-founded the Gott-
man Institute, which trains couples
therapists.
After studying more than 3,000
couples over 30 years, the Gottmans
found that six seconds of intentional
intimacy is enough to trigger the
release of oxytocin. It’s the same
hormone that’s widely believed to be
responsible for bonding a baby with
its mother; the Gottmans say it builds
trust in a relationship by calming
down the fear centre of the brain.
Gottman cited research by neuro-
economist Paul Zak that suggests a
20-second hug does the same.
“It comes whenever mammals cud-
dle with one another,” said Gottman,
author of The Seven Principles for
Making Marriage Work and other
books. “For the 20-second hug or the
six-second kiss, it’s one that really
feels different. It feels like you’ve
come home.”
What kind of couple does this work
for?
Julie Gottman said an elongated
kiss works best for couples who are
committed to each other and have
built a level of trust. Couples who
are in distress and working through
issues in therapy might not be ready
for it.
“We’re certainly not going to give
that information to a very distressed
couple early on before significant
changes because it won’t feel authen-
tic if there’s still a lot of distrust,” she
said.
How to start
Couples have to decide to take time
out of their day to prioritize their
relationship. One partner might open
the discussion by saying they believe
the exercise could deepen their bond-
ing and why not try it out?
Then it’s best to create a ritual. Set
aside the same moment every day,
for instance when everyone is about
to leave for work and school or just
before bedtime.
Creating a ritual of connection
during these transitional moments
guards against “the managerial
relationship, where the only thing
a couple does together is adding to
their very long list of tasks,” John
Gottman said.
“We want to really nurture the
romance.”
Rituals also foster a shared sense of
purpose, Julie Gottman said. Just be
sure to savour it, rather than making
it a thing you’re supposed to do.
And to the couples who say they
can’t find the time? She didn’t mince
words.
“You really don’t have six sec-
onds?” she said with a laugh. “You
know, we’re not talking six hours
here. We’re talking six seconds. So
tell me more about what that block is
about. Is there something else going
on?”
