3. Be compassionate

Showing compassion to yourself and to others is a little-known way to unlock intimacy, at least according to this research on the art of compassion. Be compassionate and show grace to each other during those messy moments. This will create a supportive, safe space between you and set a solid foundation for growing together.

4. Listen and remain judgment-free

Sometimes, we don’t know how to say the right thing. But other times, not saying anything is the right move. Being a good listener is the first stage of intimacy. If someone opens up to you and you judge them or say their perspective is wrong, it can feel like a door slamming in your face, and boom! The intimacy is shut off forever. Even if you disagree with what someone is saying, hear out their truth first.

5. Live in the present

We all get preoccupied with things we’re worried about, but staying fully present is important. If you find yourself getting distracted, bring yourself back to the present. Intimacy can only be experienced when you’re living in the moment, and doing so will deepen your connection like nothing else.
