Good connections make our brain stronger




































                    Good connections actually change our brains and body – our















                    neurobiology.





























                    When we connect with others, something called oxytocin is released















                    into our body.





























                    Oxytocin is a natural ‘feel good’ chemical. It is really good for us and















                    makes us feel great.
































                    Oxytocin helps us manage well when life is tough.
































































































































































































                    That is why building good connections are so important.
