Cute is good for you


Looking at cute things makes you happy! Gazing at a cute image triggers the release of the hormone Oxytocin, which counters stress hormones and makes you feel - and give - more love.
No kidding, it's true.

Hope this photo gives you a release of Oxytocin, it's a supersweet gift from my friend Tess. She got it for me when i was in London. I so LOVE it! I always wanted a Sunshine Buddy! Sunshine Buddies work on solar power and nod their heads while keeping you company. This little monkey sits on my desk next to my computer and always makes me smile! (Oxytocin?)

My pleasure and I'm happy it survived the trip so you can enjoy it! It is a cute little monkey :)

Oxytocin: what an interesting fact, you've got me curious now ;)

CUTE blog! As a therapist, I concur with your "scientific" findings!

I am recently just getting into Kawaii, and wonder (since you folks seem like experts on the subject) if you could tell me where to find a certain sticker/stationary thingy??? Would you email me or comment on my blog so I can contact you with a photo of what I'm looking for? THANKS!
