Neurologul Rebecca Saxe a prezentat cea mai frumoasă ”fotografie” a anului. De fapt, imaginea unei rezonanțe magnetice surprinsă în momentul în care o mamă își sărută fiul de numai două luni. Buzele puse pe căpșorul omulețului declanșează, imediat, în creierul acestuia, o reacție. Se eliberează dopamină, cea care ne dă senzația de bine, dar și oxitocină, botezată ”hormonul iubirii”, pentru că este resposabilă cu afecțiunea și cu atașamentul.
Sărutul provoacă o reacție chimică în creierul celui mic. Se declanșează o ”explozie” a oxitocinei, denumită ”hormonul iubirii”. Acesta reduce temerea și crește încrederea, stârnește sentimente de afecțiune și de atașament, semn că bebelușul a priceput că este protejat. De asemenea, se eliberează dopamină, cea care face să ne simțim bine și vasopresină, ”liantul” ce leagă mamele de bebeluși în primele luni de viață ale acestora. S-a semnalat și prezența serotoninei, cea care reglează starea noastră de spirit.

Happiness Is Believing In Yourself
...That You are enough
...That who you are matters
...That you are lovable
...That you are worthy

“An explosion of research into self-compassion over the last decade has shown its benefits for well-being. Individuals who are more self-compassionate tend to have greater happiness, life satisfaction and motivation, better relationships and physical health, and less anxiety and depression. They also have the resilience needed to cope with stressful life events.

Self-compassion involves treating yourself the way you would treat a friend who is having a hard time—even if your friend blew it or is feeling inadequate, or is just facing a tough life challenge. The more complete definition involves three core elements that we bring to bear when we are in pain: self-kindness, common humanity (the recognition that everyone make mistakes and feels pain), and mindfulness.“
