It's comparable to that of a necessity]]> 2020-05-22 03:03:40 UTC https://padlet.com/anishlat02/84e0jor0ubtomv91/wish/588251168 anishlat02 https://padlet.com/anishlat02/84e0jor0ubtomv91/wish/588251285 Neil Gaiman writes a beautiful and powerful excerpt of how love feels to an individual.

This author presents a factual analysis research and details into experiments and talking about how our brain perceives love and codependent to love - how our brain perceives and changes with attraction.]]> 2020-05-22 03:03:53 UTC https://padlet.com/anishlat02/84e0jor0ubtomv91/wish/588251344 anishlat02 https://padlet.com/anishlat02/84e0jor0ubtomv91/wish/588251383 Helen Fisher went on a TED Talk to speak about why humans crave love and need it so much to the point of where it is a necessity. She and her team put individuals who were dumped while in love and currently in love through MRI brain scans to answer why humans crave love and how our brains changes when we are in love.]]> 2020-05-22 03:03:56 UTC https://padlet.com/anishlat02/84e0jor0ubtomv91/wish/588251383 anishlat02 https://padlet.com/anishlat02/84e0jor0ubtomv91/wish/588251415 Richard Schwartz and Jacqueline Olds spoke about how love evolves and in turn meshes/adapts the brain based on love over time. They note that love also deactivates neural pathways linked to certain brain functions.

With recent research they documented solid evidence that individuals in love, experience a higher pain tolerance and individuals healthily in love also show evidence for less stress and overall health longetivity.]]> 2020-05-22 03:04:01 UTC https://padlet.com/anishlat02/84e0jor0ubtomv91/wish/588251452 anishlat02 https://padlet.com/anishlat02/84e0jor0ubtomv91/wish/588251479 Love has a multitude of "hardwired" effects on the brain. It is shown to actively rewire our brains framefork from the first time we fall in love to the last. Love targets several sectors in the brain that are directly related to releasing certain chemicals. Furthermore, with the release of these chemicals certain brain pathways have disconnects causing possible smothering of other minor brain functions.]]> 2020-05-22 03:04:04 UTC https://padlet.com/anishlat02/84e0jor0ubtomv91/wish/588251479 anishlat02 https://padlet.com/anishlat02/84e0jor0ubtomv91/wish/588251523 Scientists review and run tests to differentiate the specific sides of the brain that get affected(Left Hemisphere and Right Hemisphere centric)  when a human brain experiences love. The main conclusion that they found, was that when it came to romantic love the brain experienced higher activations in the right brain primarily linked to genuine altruism, as well as true empathy, rapport, intuition, and charisma.]]> 2020-05-22 03:04:07 UTC https://padlet.com/anishlat02/84e0jor0ubtomv91/wish/588251523 anishlat02 https://padlet.com/anishlat02/84e0jor0ubtomv91/wish/588251558  Cover Letter Hello Ms.Smyrl, I will be answering a few questions that are required for this cover letter that pertain to my essay. 1: What do you like best about your essay? - To me, I like the flow of my essay and how it hits the most common questions that people ask about love. It is informative, as a research paper should be without being overly confusing as any form of audience can read it and retain the information. 2: What was most difficult for you about writing it? - I think the most difficult part of writing this essay was the formatting and small things I had to look out for. Making sure I was formatting and typing every in text citation accurately and general formation of the paper. 3: Why do you that was difficult for you? - I believe this was difficult for me because I generally struggle with the little things and I also did not format this while I went through writing the entire essay. I let the flow of writing take over with me and I did not pay any attention to formatting while I wrote as I felt my concentration would be broken. I ultimately paid the price when I had to go back and look through the entire essay to pinpoint these issues and fix them.  ]]> 2020-05-22 03:04:10 UTC https://padlet.com/anishlat02/84e0jor0ubtomv91/wish/588251558
