עוד לא דיברנו על אהבה - עו"ד רות דיין-וולפנר | הפודקאסט

Are our brains and hearts built to love one person for life, or has monogamy become a thing of the past and is no longer relevant in the modern era? In episode 216 of the podcast, I hosted Dr. Liat Yakir – biologist, researcher of emotions and author of the book A Brief History of Love (whom you probably know from my wedding), for a sharp and exciting conversation about what motivates us to love, break up, fall in love again and seek again and again the emotional and physical connection to another person. Together, we will dive deep into the question - why is it so hard for love to last? We will discover what biology has to say about breakups, why divorce rates around the world are steadily rising, and how the struggle between the sexes in nature for the continuity of genes has shaped our relationship patterns. We will also learn whether we were really supposed to be monogamous, or is it a social institution invented to control humans, and how all of this relates to the feminist struggle. I will reassure you right now that biology is not everything – alongside the need for genetic diversity, our nervous system still craves a stable connection, to one person in front of whom our pulse synchronizes and our heart calms down. Together we will understand how emotional traumas leave a physical mark on the brain and body, why it is so difficult to reopen the heart, and what the new version of monogamy could be in the 21st century. So are you ready to understand what underlies love? Is the human brain really programmed to love one person for life? Why do women initiate most divorce proceedings, and what does it have to do with menopause? Is genetic diversity more important than the romantic idea of ​​"one and only"? How was the culture of monogamy born and spread? Is long-term relationships possible without losing the thrill and dopamine? Why does our nervous system need a stable connection to thrive? ⁠Can opening up a relationship make it stronger? ⁠And finally - is there hope for monogamy? ++ Subscribe to the podcast and receive updates on each new episode https://karmaschool.co.il __ • Listen on Google: https://bit.ly/goog_podcast • Listen on Spotify: https://bit.ly/spoti_karma_school • Listen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/apple_karma_school #ruthdayanpodcast
