Love encompasses a range of strong and positive emotional and mental states, from the most sublime virtue or good habit, the deepest interpersonal affection, to the simplest pleasure.And what’s Jiu-Jitsu if not the gentle art of strengthening your mind with a positive mental state, that comes from a good and healthy habit that you develop when you start training Jiu-Jitsu.
Hugs

2. Serotonine Levels
That amazing feeling you feel when you are in love with someone, you can also find in Jiu-Jitsu!
