Observed in the United States annually on January 21, National Hugging Day serves as a reminder to express our feelings and show love and appreciation to those around us
Whether it’s a friendly hug or a comforting squeeze, hugging has powerful effects on your physical and emotional well-being. Know five amazing benefits ahead:
Hugging reduces stress and anxiety. It helps lower cortisol levels, easing stress and promoting a sense of calm
It can also reduce blood pressure and heart rate, contributing to a healthier cardiovascular system
The act of hugging strengthens immunity as physical touch boosts the production of white blood cells which improves your immune response
Next, it triggers the release of feel-good hormones like oxytocin and serotonin, enhancing your mood
A hug fosters emotional connection and strengthens bonds with loved ones, making relationships more fulfilling
