Description: Turns out love is more than just a bunch of birds and bees getting it on. There is an entire science behind what happens in the human brain when we fall head over heels. Love chemicals flood the brain when we form attachment and fall in lurrrv. Not unlike how MDMA (also known as ecstasy) floods the brain with feel-good neurotransmitters. Now combine MDMA alongside couples therapy and you've got a pretty interesting potential for groundbreaking work in healing past trauma. We are elated to be joined by Brian Earp — Associate Director of the Program in Ethics and Health Policy at Yale University & Research Fellow in Practical Ethics at Oxford, to discuss this fascinating topic with us.
