Have you ever rejected somone who loved you? Have you ever been rejected? How did you feel after that?
This week I would like to share an amazing video of Helen Fisher about the study of the brain when we are in love.

She starts off by telling a story about a Mayan king that, very deeply in love, had his temple, his final resting place, built in front of his love's. At the equinox, they still touch each other when the sun goes up and down.

According to her research, love makes us activate the same part of the brain that is associated with focus, motivation, wanting.
They've also found out that romantic love equals addiction since the reaction is similar to those that drugs create!
Yes, romantic love is one of the most addictive substances on earth!
