The Importance of Hugs

Every person needs physical touch to feel good. Of course, there are exceptional states, such as monasticism or a person's retreat from worldly life into solitude. But there, in fact, a person is not so lonely, experiencing the embrace of another, more subtle, intangible, spiritual matter. Let's not dwell on that for now. A simple earthly hug is meant to help one another, to transfer strength and, at the same time, to receive it to the same extent. Often, we can't find the words to express our feelings, but a hug explains everything without words and puts everything in its place. Hugs are a language, rich and intimate, not inferior to the speeches of kisses, rather complementing them with another, irreplaceable shade.

The Importance of Hugs

A hug alleviates pain, eases one's fate (if it's not difficult?), and prevents fears. A person supported by a friend's hug is protected from falling into despair. It's no coincidence there's a saying: "The best place to fall is into arms." Hugs from family and friends warm you for a long time, as if you’re covered in a soft, cozy, and warm blanket. Imagine – hugs are the subject of research in a special section of clinical psychology. Back in the 1970s, it was established that hugs increase the level of endorphins in the human body – natural pain relievers produced by the nervous system and brain.

What does a hug give to a person?

It is said that each of us needs 4 hugs a day to survive, 8 to feel loved, and 12 to become a real person... Of course, the numbers can be disputed, but what matters here is the principle, not the numbers. So, what does a hug provide? 1. Courage. It's very interesting to observe how contests happen behind the scenes. Today, it's common to place cameras everywhere, including backstage. Each contestant is hugged by their mentor, parents, or friends before going on stage. Through a hug, they convey confidence: "Everything will be fine, you can do it, you're ready, I'm with you, you're not alone."

What do hugs give to a person?

2. Strength. Energy is transmitted through a hug. When a person is alone, they feel that their strength is exhausted. A person needs reinforcement, a doping called "courage", which is contained in hugs. 3. Health. A hug can heal broken hearts, and for this, you don't need to go to a doctor for a prescription. 4. Information. It is simple, clear, and extremely necessary for everyone. By hugging, we say without words: "I know you, believe in you, appreciate you, and want everything to be well for you".

What does a hug give a person?

5. Protection. Feeling protected is necessary for every individual. This is especially important for children and the elderly. They are the most defenseless people. 6. Confidence. Besides the 'courage' booster, everyone needs the lubricant called 'self-confidence'. If we don’t support and encourage each other, how can we move forward in life? We can't. Hugs help to gain the necessary confidence. Bringing joy to each other, supporting, protecting, inspiring by hugging - this makes life much better, easier, and... kinder.
