The brain on love
Wednesday, April 4, 2012 · Topics: emotional-intelligence, love, neuroscience
From NY Times: A relatively new field, called interpersonal neurobiology, draws its vigor from one of the great discoveries of our era: that the brain is constantly rewiring itself based on daily life. In the end, what we pay the most attention to defines us. How you choose to spend the irreplaceable hours of your life literally transforms you.
All relationships change the brain — but most important are the intimate bonds that foster or fail us, altering the delicate circuits that shape memories, emotions and that ultimate souvenir, the self. · Go to The brain on love →

An introduction to power and love: A theory and practice of social change
Tuesday, December 15, 2009 · Topics: love, org-culture, social-change
By Adam Kahane. Our two most common ways of trying to address our toughest social challenges are the extreme ones: aggressive war and submissive peace. Neither of these ways works. We can try, using our guns or money or votes, to push through what we want, regardless of what others want — but inevitably the others push back. Or we can try not to push anything on anyone — but that leaves our situation just as it is.A character in Rent, Jonathan Larson’s Broadway musical about struggling artists and musicians in New York City, says, “The opposite of war isn’t peace, it’s creation!” To address our toughest social challenges, we need a way that is neither war nor peace, but collective creation. How can we co-create new social realities? · Go to An introduction to power and love: A theory and practice of social change →
