Clare Steffen, Ed.D. is a psychologist, certified drug & alcohol counselor, and life, wellness, business & brain health coach. In this episode of the Heal Your Brain Toolbox, Dr. Steffen explores the question of why we love from the chemical and emotional perspective. She presents the Big Five of Healthy Relationships Model along with Dr. David Weiss' Eight Dimensions of Choice as they relate to wellness and the reasons we fall or stay in love. Certainly, even though on the surface this appears to be a simple question, it truly is a more complex question. Perhaps this episode opens the door to asking more questions rather than providing solutions to the question of Why We Love. Maybe that is the point, since the reasons we love are individualized and personal, even though as human beings we share the desire to socially connect and experience a sense of belonging.
