Is Oxytocin the key to happiness?

Moving, reading, singing, seeing friends, and being cuddled are certainly ways to feel better.

By doing this, you increase the production in your body of a small molecule called oxytocin, which helps you go from feeling down to feeling good.

Oxytocin adds pleasure.

It makes contact with family members and other loved ones more pleasant and enjoyable. It makes us want to meet them, stay in groups and go to parties.

Oxytocin gradually increases the desire to meet people and reduces the instinctive distrust and coldness typical of people with an oxytocin deficiency. Contacts become easier.

One experiences a new pleasure, and even happiness in socializing.
