New Years Resolution for those of us married more than 10 years: End the day with a 6 second kiss.
Kissing does wonders for you; it releases
oxytocin, which makes you feel a sense of comfort and bonding, and
dopamine, which activates your brain’s reward center.
Those butterflies in your stomach? They
come from epinephrine and norepinephrine, which increase your heartbeat
and send oxygenated blood to your brain.
Some studies have even shown that kissing
can cause a reduction in the stress hormone cortisol, which could help
lower your blood pressure
