After showering, especially with warm water, the body can release oxytocin, often referred to as the "love hormone." This hormone promotes feelings of relaxation and well-being, which can be enhanced by the soothing effects of warm water. Additionally, the act of showering may reduce stress, further contributing to the release of oxytocin and other stress-relief hormones like endorphins.
