To cheer you up its :-
International Hugging Day
This is the day to give and to receive.
Give a hug, and you automatically receive one in return.
Hugs are loving. Hugs are therapeutic. Hugs are caring. Hugs are celebratory. Hugs make you feel good inside. A hug is a way to say everything is, or will be okay.
That's proof positive that you're loved and cared about.
So celebrate today by giving hugs to family, friends and loved ones. You'll love the warm feeling you get.
If you've got no one to hug, then I send out to you a virtual one ! MWAH
Facts about hugging :-
YOU SPEND 1 HOUR A MONTH HUGGING
First, that sounds not very long and not very much. But if you consider that an average hug is under 10 seconds, 1 hours a month sounds a lot!
A 20-SECOND HUG IS ABLE TO REDUCE HARMFUL PHYSICAL EFFECTS OF STRESS, INCLUDING ITS IMPACT ON YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE AND HEART RATE
The skin contains a network of tiny, egg-shaped pressure centers called Pacinian corpuscles that can sense touch and which are in contact with the brain through the vagus nerve. The vagus nerve winds its way through the body and is connected to a number of organs, including the heart.“
EVEN A 10-SECOND HUG CAN IMPROVE YOUR HEALTH
A 10-second hug can :
- Lower risk of heart disease
- Fight infections
- Stress reduction
- Fight fatigue
- Boost your immune system
- Ease depression
