Do those things impact more than just our emotional well-being?<\/p>\n<p>The answer is a resounding yes!\u00a0Falling in love and sex as a physical act of love can have a variety of impacts, both physical and mental.<\/p>\n<p>Physically, love can have these benefits:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Lower blood pressure<\/li>\n<li>Reduce stress levels<\/li>\n<li>Improve your sleep patterns<\/li>\n<li>Boost your immune system<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The positive mental impacts can:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Improve your self esteem<\/li>\n<li>Bolster your self confidence<\/li>\n<li>Reduce anxiety<\/li>\n<li>Blunt the impacts of depression and reduce your chances of becoming depressed<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Although it takes some of the romanticism out of the equation to know it, the big drivers here are hormonal.\u00a0 In particular, being in love increases both the dopamine and oxytocin levels in your body, and it is these that help drive most of the positive benefits, both mental and physical.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a dark side to the equation though, and that of course, is falling out of love.\u00a0 Just as falling in and being in love can give you a raft of benefits, falling out of love or being rejected can hurt you in real and tangible ways.<\/p>\n<p>You may not realize it, but there\u2019s an actual condition called Broken Heart Syndrome.
