Some gals get married expecting that their husband will fulfill all their needs. This is a mistake. It's an impossible task to expect this from your husband. You need to find ways to have a fulfilling married life that does not make you depend fully on him.
Exercise is an important venue for working off excess stress as well as staying in good shape. Exercise can lift your spirits and help you maintain a positive outlook. Try to encourage your spouse to join you, but if he doesn't want to, don't push him.
Hobbies are a wonderful way to relax and find pleasure in your day. Assuming you don't run into frustrating snags in your hobbies, this can be another venue for lifting your spirit.
Don't forget to develop friendships with other GALS. Make sure they are godly ladies who will encourage you in your marriage and in your walk with God. Notice I said GALS. It is dangerous to maintain or develop close friendships with guys...even through social media or email. It is all to easy to fall into the trap of being attracted to that person and jeopardize your marriage in the process.
These are just a few things that might be appropriate to touch on in a bridal shower talk.
