There is probably a way to make the stick together, but then you will
probably have whitespace of bad formatting on the page. What I do in
such cases is keep the problem for when the text is completely
finished and then think about how I could move a few sentences around
until it works :)

You can probably add \nopagebreak as ERT in the relevant items. I
never tried it myself.

The TeX FAQ has an interesting discussion on the subject:
