Podcast: On HumansPublished On: Thu Feb 01 2024
Description: Why do we love? What brings us together? How to heal ethnic hatred? According to my guest, the answer to all these questions lies in the human desire to grow ourselves through connecting with others. Arthur Aron is a psychologist who studies human bonding in all its forms. A pioneer in the field, he has studied topics from connecting with strangers to maintaining romance in life-long marriages. And many of his findings are ultimately hopeful. In this conversation, we discuss topics such as:(4:30) Why we love (12:50) Tools to cultivate love (24:30) Friendships with the ethnic "other” (31:30) Are we naturally xenophobic?MENTIONSNames: Elaine Aron, Helen Fisher, Stephen WrightArticles: For links to videos, articles, and the 36 Questions, see https://onhumans.substack.com/p/links-for-episode-35MORE LINKS Read the On Humans newsletter at OnHumans.Substack.com Support On Humans at Patreon.com/OnHumans
