Did you know that hugs have the power to make us happier, reduce stress, and even cure illness by making us stronger? Have you ever wondered: How many hugs do you give and receive every day?
Family therapist Virginia Satir says:
"We need 4 hugs a day to 'survive' and '12 hugs a day to grow '. While that may sound like a lot of hugs,' a lot 'is better than' none '."
So according to science, in the case of hugs, "the more the better" is 100% true.
Unfortunately, in recent years most people have been deprived of touch due to the pandemic. This has made many people feel lonely and consequently, go through this situation with more difficulty, anxiety or even depression.
However, today, in our country, the rules are not so strict. Therefore, if you want to feel better about yourself, reduce stress, improve communication, and be happier and healthier, start with a hug. Give and receive hugs wherever you can.
If you feel nervous about asking for more hugs, start by asking friends and family members closest to you first.
While now, just hug the person closest to you and do a good deed for both of you.
