It can make you feel young and alive. Researchers tell us that when we are touched, the amount of hemoglobin in our blood increases dramatically, providing life-giving oxygen from head to toe. We are healthier over-all and we feel better. You can hug when you dance and while you sleep. There is no time limit on giving a hug.
Hugs never go out of style.
Ask permission when you need or want to share a hug. There is a difference between a warm, friendly hug and a passionate embrace- please hug accordingly. A hug is a gentle embrace- not the Heimlich. Some huggers pat while hugging. Others simply hold and embrace.
