The Science of Emotions & Relationships | Episode 13

<p>In this episode I discuss the biology of emotions and moods in the context of relationships. I focus on the science of how early infant-caregiver attachment, combined with adolescence and puberty shape our adult patterns of attachment. I explain the three universal aspects of emotions, the reality of right-brain versus left-brain personalities, and how the roots of adult attachment are also grounded in specific aspects of puberty. I review what factors determine when puberty starts and ends, and the role of oxytocin and other chemicals in controlling how we perceive and remember others. As always, I refer to various practical tools including new tools for understanding and predicting our emotions before they occur, and neurochemicals that shape human connection.</p> <p> </p> <p>Thank you to our sponsors:</p> <ul> <li>InsideTracker - <a href= "https://insidetracker.com/huberman">https://insidetracker.com/huberman</a></li> <li>ExpressVPN - <a href= "http://expressvpn.com/huberman">http://expressvpn.com/huberman</a></li> <li>Magic Spoon - <a href= "http://magicspoon.com/huberman">http://magicspoon.com/huberman</a></li> </ul> <p>Our Patreon page:</p> <ul> <li><a href= "https://www.patreon.com/andrewhuberman">https://www.patreon.com/andrewhuberman</a></li> </ul> <p>Supplements from Thorne:</p> <ul> <li><a href= "http://www.thorne.com/u/huberman">http://www.thorne.com/u/huberman</a></li> </ul> <p>Links:</p> <ul> <li>NSDR - <a href= "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pL02HRFk2vo">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pL02HRFk2vo</a></li> <li>Mood Meter App - <a href= "https://moodmeterapp.com/">https://moodmeterapp.com/</a></li> <li>Adolescence and The Brain - <a href= "https://www.nature.com/articles/nature25770">https://www.nature.com/articles/nature25770</a></li> <li>Vagus and Depression - <a href= "https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2015/05/18/lighting-the-brain">https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2015/05/18/lighting-the-brain</a></li> </ul> <p> </p> <p>Timestamps below.</p> <ul> <li>00:00:00 Introduction</li> <li>00:05:
