The Brain in Love

06/04/2015

The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.
Nelson Mandela

In the introduction to the Exchange book, Connecting: Friendship in the Lives of Young Children and Their Teachers, Ashley Montagu observes...

"Love is the supreme form of human communication. In the hierarchy of needs, love stands as the supreme developing agent of the humanity of the person. As such, the teaching of love should be the central core of all early childhood curriculum — with all other subjects growing naturally out of such teaching."

How deeply love moves us is explored in a most engaging video, The Brain in Love by Helen Fisher, where she describes how the brain is impacted by love and concludes "...love is in us. It's deeply embedded in the brain. Our challenge is to understand each other."
