Do we control our experience of attraction? It's a fascinating area of mental health that has a lot to do with neurology, hormones, pheromones, and the intricate interactions between biology and social and emotional factors.
What makes us attracted to someone? Is it all about chemistry, or do we have more control than we think? In this episode of 'Through a Therapist's Eyes', Chris Gazdik, Victoria, and Mr. Pope dive headfirst into the fascinating world of attraction. They kick things off by questioning whether we can truly control our experiences of attraction.
From there, they break down the three stages of romantic love: Lust, Attraction, and Attachment, explaining how our bodies release different hormones at each stage. But it's not just about the biology; they also explore the psychological aspects. How much do our thoughts and emotions play a role in maintaining attraction, even when the initial hormonal rush fades? The hosts balance their deep insights with a touch of humor, making complex topics both accessible and engaging.
Whether you're curious about the science behind those butterflies in your stomach or looking for ways to understand your own feelings better, this episode offers a thoughtful blend of science and practical advice. Perfect for anyone interested in relationships, self-awareness, or just understanding what makes us tick.
