Maya and Josh are cohabitating, which means that they are living together as a couple without being married. The other options are not appropriate terms for their situation: "conscious coupling" is a recently popularized term that refers to a serious commitment between two people, but it is not specifically about living together or marriage; "conjugating" refers to the grammatical process of changing verb forms, and has nothing to do with relationships; and "trial marrying" is not a common term and does not accurately describe the long-term commitment that Maya and Josh have made to each other.
