Susan has become an authoritative expert on the biological basis of love and commitment. Our ability to love this way, and to feel loved in return, is primarily based on oxytocin, a chemical produced in the brain in response to positive social interactions. Oxytocin, sometimes called the cuddle chemical, is responsible for life's most fulfilling emotions: love, trust and commitment. According to Susan: "Our brains develop the oxytocin response after we're born, in response to the kind of mothering we get. If your mother is depressed, angry or ill, you may not grow up with the ability to bond in healthy relationships." Join us for a fascinating glimpse into the "Chemistry of Connection".
