Cuddle Up Day is an opportunity to snuggle up to someone on a cold winters' day or night. Chances are it's cold outside. So, cosy up to a special someone, and enjoy the warmth and love. This day is enjoyed by both young and old.

This day is a great opportunity to:

... Cuddle with your cutie

... Snuggle with your sweetie

... Hug your honey

... Smooch with your sugar

... Squeeze ya sweetheart

Cuddle

Aw come on and give us a 

Cuddle

Under the duvet all in a 

Huddle

We can hide underneath

a blanket fluffy

Not get dressed be really

Scruffy

Hide away from the

cold and rain

Snow, sleet

wind and hurricane

All warm and safe

All dry and snoozy

eat some snacks

have some boozy

So give me a cuddle

let me feel your skin

So we'll keep without

and stay within

So Why Cuddle?

IT STRENGTHENS YOUR BOND

The closer you and your partner are while you sleep, the more likely you are to feel happy with your relationship.

IT MAKES YOU HAPPIER

Thank you, dopamine and serotonin! Touching someone releases these two hormones, both of which can boost your mood and help curb depression. 

IT MAKES YOU STRESS LESS

The moment you make skin-to-skin contact, your brain tells your adrenal glands to cut back on cortisol production, which makes you feel less anxious. 

IT HELPS YOU SLEEP BETTER

When you're not so anxious, you're more likely to snooze at a reasonable hour.

IT STRENGTHENS YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM

Cuddling can stimulate your parasympathetic (otherwise known as relaxation) system, which releases serotonin, dopamine, and oxytocin. All of these feel-good hormones boost your immunity to help fend off sickness.

A group of cuddly Londoners clinched their way to a new record for the longest marathon hug on Friday. Four determined couples managed to each set a new record time of 24 hours and 44 minutes during the attempt at St Pancras Station, which coincided with National Hugging Day.24 Jan 2012

I'm very pleased with my new fridge magnet. So far I've got twelve fridges.
