JoelandKathy Posted February 15, 2014 Report Share Posted February 15, 2014 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rFAdlU2ETjU This video explains more about Oxytocin.. and why women get addicted to facebook. The interaction releases oxytocin. Even posting on the forum, replying to people on a forum like GodSaveMyMarriageForums.com releases oxytocin. Interesting!

ChooseLove Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 (edited) Found another presentation on cortisol and oxytocin at http://youtu.be/-ZnS5_WWt-A, titled, "7 Ways to Rock Cortisol (& Manage Your Stress)" Dr. Sara Gottfried at Wanderlust's Speakeasy. While not Christian based, I thought the science part as it relates to cortisol and oxytocin was interesting.

ChooseLove Posted April 22, 2015 Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 Here is another good article titled, Holding a Grudge Produces Cortisol and Diminishes Oxytocin. Some highlights... Having a vendetta or holding a grudge is toxic. Over the long run—if you don’t make conciliatory efforts to neutralize interpersonal conflicts—holding a grudge will wreak havoc inside your body. In many ways, holding a grudge is a form of self-sabotage. Luckily, you have the power to break this cycle. If left unregulated, holding a grudge can create loneliness, isolation, and pent-up anger that creates an uptick in cortisol and lowers oxytocin. Recent studies have found that the attachment processes between two individuals in an intimate relationship dramatically affect physical and psychological health. In one of the largest, longest and most definitive studies on the effects of conciliatory gestures and conflict resolution, researchers have confirmed what we all know from life experience—peacemaking efforts and owning up to one's responsibility in a transgression promotes forgiveness and reduces anger.

4evrHZdtr3 Posted April 22, 2015 Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 Thanks, ChooseLove, A good article... scientific but it just makes me a little sad that they have to pull Yin and Yang into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChooseLove Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 Thanks, ChooseLove, A good article... scientific but it just makes me a little sad that they have to pull Yin and Yang into it.You are welcome. I agree with you about the Yin and Yang part. I am fascinated about how our brain works in relation to these chemicals in our body. It really is interesting how God designed us and how when we function in his design how much better our mind, body and spirit become integrated.
