It seems like winter is trying to show up here in Taos, but don't let that stop you and yours from taking time to yourselves. Below are some date night ideas brought to you by a couples counselor.
Taos Winter Wine Festival is coming up soon! It is January 29th - February 2nd in 2025. They have several events including tastings, luncheons, and dinners. Any of these events are sure to have you and your partner in a curious, exploratory mood. My personal favorite dinners will be hosted by Suchness, Aceq, and Medley
Attend a film at the Taos Center for the Arts. After Oscar nominations are announced on January 17, you and yours can purchase the Oscars Pass to critique and enjoy the nominated films. If you're not a huge fan of the Academy, they also regularly show indie films.
Listen to music, dance, or just enjoy the ambiance of The Social Club. Dance wise there is a 4-week Bachata series starting Wednesday, January 8. There is also regular bi-weekly Tango on Sunday evenings at 4:30, with Milonga afterwards. Next class in Sunday, January 19. They also regularly host music artists.
Snuggle in for the night and improve your relationship with Gottman created card decks. The app is free, so choose a deck and directions for the activity will display the first time you select a deck (deck options include, but is not limited to: Love Maps, Open-Ended Questions, and Date Questions). Download for iOS and Android.
Since it's getting chilly here, I'd like to recommend another snuggly date night idea. Read a book or some poetry together. If you want to make it a spicy one, go for it! Reading aloud to one another is about creating intimacy and winding down for the night. It can also help out with falling asleep if you've been finding it difficult to get your brain to quiet down before bed.
