연애를 시작할 때는 모든 것이 즐겁고 설레지만 만남이 오래 이어지면 데이트 코스도 비슷해지고 어떨 땐 지루해지기도 한다. 이럴 때 다른 커플과 어울려 만나거나 친구를 한둘 끼워 넣어 데이트 하면 연애에 새로운 활력소가 될 수 있다는 연구결과가 나왔다.
미국 웨인주립대학교의 심리학 교수인 리처드 슬래처 박사는 커플이 사이를 장기적으로 발전시키려면 다른 커플 또는 다른 친구들을 끼워 만나는 사회 활동이 중요하다고 밝혔다. 슬래처 박사는 여러 커플이 한데 어울리면 우정이 어떻게 더 커지고 각 커플의 연애 관계에 어떤 영향을 주는지 60쌍의 커플을 사례로 연구했다.
연구는 두 커플을 한 조로 만들어 어떤 주제의 토론에 같은 편으로 참여시키는 방식으로 이뤄졌다. 한 그룹에게는 긴장감 있는 토론이 이뤄질 주제를 주었고, 다른 그룹에게는 일상적이고 크게 감정적 동요가 없을 주제로 이야기 하게 했다.
그 결과 같은 편이 되어 격렬한 토론에 참여한 커플들은 가벼운 주제를 다룬 그룹의 커플에 비해 서로 빠르게 친해졌다. 특히 같은 편이 되어 격렬한 토론에 참여한 뒤 각 커플은 “다른 커플과의 상호작용을 통해 더 큰 새로움을 느꼈으며 내 짝에 대해 새로운 발견을 하게 됐다”고 말했다.
또 한편이 돼 격렬한 토론을 한 집단의 커플들은 같은 조에 배정받았던 커플과 실제 다시 만나는 등 친밀감을 느끼게 된 것으로 나타났다. 이 그룹의 커플들은 3쌍 가운데 1쌍 꼴로 같은 조였던 커플을 꾸준히 연락하고 만났다. 반면 가벼운 일상 이야기만 나눈 그룹에서는 한 조였던 커플과 연락하는 커플이 없었다.
슬래처 박사는 “한편이 돼 격렬한 토론전을 벌이는 경험은 각 커플의 남녀 사이에 새로운 자극이 돼 남녀 모두 자신의 짝과 훨씬 가까워진 느낌을 받게 한다”며 “연인 사이가 제자리걸음처럼 느껴질 때 다른 커플과 어울리면 관계가 좀더 만족스럽게 진전된다”고 말했다.
이 연구결과는 저널 ‘인간관계(Personal Relationships)’에 실렸고 미국 과학논문 소개사이트 유레칼러트 등이 10일 보도했다.
 

Dr. Jennifer Landa Chief Medical Officer, BodyLogicMD Dear Colleagues, What a journey it’s been since I first started my Fellowship training in 2004! This specialized training offers you a unique opportunity to help your patients in ways you’ve never before dreamed of. The Fellowship will also put you in an amazing position to start a cash-based practice and move away from the hassles of insurance billing and Medicare/HMO reimbursement rates – not to mention insurance companies that tell you how to practice medicine! But I’m sure a few of the questions in your mind are: “How will I find patients and how will they find me?” “Will I be able to make a living doing this?” “How will I operate, build and market my practice AND see patients?” I was concerned about the same thing. How on earth would I start a practice from scratch and market it and make it a success where so many others had failed? I was excited to put all my training into motion, but how could I do that successfully? Enter BodyLogicMD. When I first looked at joining BodyLogicMD, the company was only a few years old, with just a few practices in the network. I was nervous. But I was also excited about the possibility of partnering with a company who could take all those business concerns away. They first started me off with a comprehensive business plan. I knew I needed one, but I also knew that it would take me months to develop on my own. I was completely shocked to have my practice up and running within a few months. It was a partnership at every step of the way, from finding a space to negotiating the lease to finding office furniture and office staff. Their marketing program is second to none. They handle every aspect of finding me patients; from advertising and marketing, to scheduling appointments and chasing lab results. Finally, a way to practice medicine and just ‘see patients’ and not have to worry about the business hassles. Now, almost 4 years later, BodyLogicMD has duplicated the process about 50 times and they (we) have learned a lot from the process. One of the best parts about BodyLogicMD is the community of Fellowship Trained doctors. Practicing this type of medicine can feel lonely at times. BodyLogicMD colleagues are just an email away. We correspond on a daily basis to review challenging cases and get input from colleagues with backgrounds in all different types of medicine. Being a BodyLogicMD physician also opens a lot of doors, especially educationally. We have educational webinars with many of the elite in the preventative/functional medicine arena. We also have monthly educational webinars with experts in the field on new technology and new testing that is emerging in the field of preventive and anti-aging medicine. So whether you are just starting out, want to join or grow an existing anti-aging practice, BodyLogicMD is the answer. They have the proven business experience and our physicians have the superior medical knowledge. Together, we excel in the field of bioidentical hormone therapy and anti-aging medicine. To learn more about becoming a BodyLogicMD physician, call Max Astern at 888-625-8705.     Use this link to see this email in your web browser This email was sent to: hgc1123@hanmail.net This is a commercial message from Medical Conferences International Inc. in full compliance with Federal regulation.

WEDNESDAY, APRIL 6, 2011 • ORLANDO, FLORIDA PRESENTED BY: Lena Edwards, MD, FAARM and Thomas Guilliams, PhD   PROGRAM DESCRIPTION: Dysfunction of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis has been widely recognized in the medical literature as the major cause of abnormal cortisol release patterns. Nearly every medical condition can be directly or indirectly influenced by atypical release patterns of hormones of the stress response system, cortisol in particular. This workshop will provide attendees with an understanding of the stress response system and its components, the levels at which dysfunction may occur, the hormonal disruptions that follow, and the metabolic and clinical consequences thereof. Due to the significant interplay between all major endocrine hormones, the effects of stress hormone abnormalities on other hormones, such as thyroid and growth hormones, will also be reviewed. Practical, evidence based information on proper diagnosis of HPA axis dysfunction and abnormal cortisol release patterns will be discussed as well as potential underlying causes of abnormal stress hormone production. We will also attempt to clearly define stress terminology including a review of the distinction between HPA axis dysfunction, adrenal dysfunction, and the term ‘adrenal fatigue’.     DON’T MISS OUT, SEATING IS LIMITED.
