The Love.

  

Oxytocin, often called the "love hormone," plays a crucial role in various aspects of human health and well-being. Here are some of the key benefits of oxytocin: 

Promotes feelings of attachment, love, and trust between individuals.

Enhances social interaction and strengthens relationships.   

Acts as a natural stress buffer, reducing anxiety and promoting feelings of calm. 

Helps regulate the body's response to stress. 

May enhance immune function by promoting inflammation resolution.  

Oxytocin levels can be increased through pleasurable activities like exercise, physical touch, and social connection. Oxytocin is sometimes called the "love hormone" because it's associated with trust, sexual interaction, and relationship building.

Feel Good..

 

Endorphins are chemicals that help relieve pain, reduce stress, and improve mental well-being. They're often referred to as the brain's "feel-good" neurotransmitters.

• Aerobic activities like running, tennis, or hiking can increase endorphins 
  
  

• Moderately intense exercise, like walking fast, can help release endorphins 
  
  

• Eating dark chocolate can release endorphins and serotonin

• Eating spicy food can increase endorphins

• Laughing at a joke or watching a funny movie can increase endorphins 
  
  

• Laughter can also alter levels of dopamine and serotonin 
  
  

You can increase endorphins in your body by exercising, eating certain foods, laughing, and trying other activities.

Waste ..

 

President Donald Trump criticized the technologies aboard the new US Navy supercarrier USS Gerald R. Ford on Wednesday in a discussion of waste, reviving complaints about the aircraft carrier's engineering.

In remarks following the swearing-in of the new director of national intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard , Trump deviated unexpectedly into carrier catapults and elevators, among other topics.

"Look at the Gerald Ford, the aircraft carrier," Trump said ."It was supposed to cost $3 billion. It ends up costing like $18 billion."

Stand..

 

Standing with your hands behind your back is often interpreted as a body language signal of confidence, authority, or a sense of control, as it exposes the torso and can signify feeling comfortable and unthreatened in a situation; however, depending on the context, it can also be seen as a sign of being closed off or unapproachable

Stands tall with their back straight and feet positioned shoulder-width apart, they naturally take up more space, appearing well-grounded and in control. Keeping their arms behind their back leaves the chest exposed, signaling a sense of ease, authority, and self-assurance in their surroundings.

Their hands might rest against each other without being tightly clasped—ready to swing into action if needed, but showing no immediate tension.

This stance is often seen in people who hold positions of authority, such as CEOs, politicians, and members of royalty. It’s also common among police officers, teachers, and clergy, who use it as a subtle way to reinforce their leadership and presence.

High..

Runner's high is a pleasurable and euphoric feeling that some people experience during or after prolonged aerobic exercise. It is thought to be caused by the release of certain chemicals in the brain, including: 

Endorphins: These natural painkillers reduce pain and produce feelings of well-being.  

Endocannabinoids:  

These chemicals are similar to marijuana and have mood-altering effects.   

The idea behind runner's high is believed that exercise triggers the release of endorphins and endocannabinoids in the brain. These chemicals cross the blood-brain barrier and interact with receptors in the reward system, leading to feelings of euphoria, pleasure, and reduced pain. Conditions for Runner's High are 

Engaged in prolonged aerobic exercise (e.g., running, cycling, swimming)

Run at a moderate intensity for at least 45 minutes

Have a history of running or other regular exercise

Have a positive attitude towards exercise.

Dopamine..

 

Dopamine is known as the “feel-good” hormone. It gives you a sense of pleasure. It also gives you the motivation to do something when you're feeling pleasure. Dopamine is part of your reward system.

 You can increase dopamine levels by eating well, exercising, meditating, and doing other activities that make you feel good. 

1. Eat foods rich in tyrosine, an amino acid that the brain uses to make dopamine. 

Foods high in tyrosine include chicken, dairy, avocados, bananas, and nuts. Eat foods rich in magnesium. 

Reduce saturated fat. 

Get regular exercise and Try cold water therapy. 

Try meditation, yoga, or breathwork.

Life Span..

 

While countries like Japan are known for their long life expectancy, other countries may offer even better opportunities for expats to improve their lifespan. Research by health insurance experts at William Russell highlighted destinations with the biggest change in life expectancy

South Korea experienced the biggest change in life expectancy over the last five years, an impressive feat considering they were already in the top 10 countries globally. 

Currently, the average 60-year-old in Korea is expected to reach 86 years of age.

 The health insurance experts found some common traits among citizens in countries with growing lifespans.

These included balanced diets, active lifestyles, strong healthcare systems, and supportive communities. The experts concluded:

Happy V Day.

 

To increase oxytocin levels naturally, you can engage in activities that promote physical touch like hugging, cuddling, holding hands, giving massages, having intimate relation, spending time with loved ones, exercising, listening to music, petting a dog, practicing mindfulness, and engaging in acts of kindness; essentially, activities that foster social connection and positive feeling.
