Why is it that you can know someone isn’t right for you and still miss them like your life depends on it? And why does heartbreak make getting through a normal day feel so difficult? Why does it feel like you may never find love or happiness again?

Today, I am uncovering the neuroscience of heartbreak and healing: how and why love becomes tangled up with reward, attachment and your sense of self, and why losing someone can hurt so much, even physically. What physical and chemical changes are happening in the brain. Then ill get practical about healing. How you can re-wire and the brain back to a happy state, interrupt the idealising, and start building a life that feels like yours again, all through neuroscience.
