Relationship Renewal! Top Doc Since 1999!
Mused while appreciating being selected a Top Doc in plastic surgery by other doctors in the annual Cincinnati Magazine issue. My staff (I consider it a team effort) and I have been selected since 1999. Good work and concern for others is noticed by the community.
This new year’s, in addition to eating healthy and getting in better shape try to rekindle love or as researchers call it “love regulation”. Psychologists are mixed about whether love is an emotion or a feeling. Either way, a recent study showed that we can control some of love through our thoughts.
The study took people who are in love and those who had recently broken up. Both groups were asked to look at pictures of their partner and think positive thoughts and then negative thoughts. Those in love felt better about their partner when they thought positively and conversely when they thought negatively. Those with a recent break up felt better when they thought negatively.
(Did You Know? Brainwave movement was used to confirm the way paraticipants felt in this study.)
Here’s what you can do:
-Think positive thoughts!
-Make small tweaks; hugs, kisses, listening and engaging all help.
-Smile at your partner.
-Have sex; it secretes oxytocin which is a bonding hormone.
-Broaden your perspective. What positive attributes do others see in your partner that you can appreciate?
-Let it go (Let It Be?!). Let small things go like the proverbial sock on the floor.
-Try new things together; romance, travel, hobbies.
-Ask questions; plans together, hopes, dreams, etc.
