Whatever you do, do it with love.—1 Corinthians 16:14

Brainy Tip: Love positively affects our physical health.

If there is one word of advice I can give anyone, it is to tune in to the power of love. Studies show clear changes in the patterns of activity of the autonomic nervous system, immune system, hormonal system, brain, and heart when you experience emotions such as appreciation, love, care, and compassion. Love is the most powerful force in the universe because God is love.

When you experience true, authentic love, your heart speeds up its communication with your mind and body through your blood flow. Life is in the blood (it is the body’s transport system), and the heart is in charge of making sure the transport works. Health essentially travels from the brain to the heart in electrical signals and then through to the rest of the body! Love, in a short amount of time, can saturate the body with healthy signals and chemicals.
