Hugging accomplishes many things that you may never have thought of. It ...
- feels good *yea it certainly does* - dispels loneliness - overcomes fear *assurance of support* - opens doors to feelings - builds self-esteem (WOW, SHE actually wants to hug me!) - fosters altruism (I can't believe it but I actually want to hug that old son-of-a-gun) - slows down aging (huggers stay young longer) *oh really?* - helps curb appetite (we eat less when we are nourished by hugs and when our arms are busy wrapped around others) *dieting method?*
More Good Things from Hugging :-
- eases tension - fights insomnia - keeps arms and shoulder muscles in condition - provides stretching exercise if you are short *does hugging make me grow taller?* - provides stooping exercise if you are tall - offers a wholesome alternative to promiscuity - offers a healthy, safe alternative to alcohol and other drug abuse (better hugs than drugs!) - affirms physical being *support* - is democratic (anyone is eligible for a hug)
Even More Benefits from Hugging :-
- is ecologically sound (it does not upset the environment) - is energy-efficient (saves heat) - is portable *haha* - requires no special equipment - demands no special setting (a fine place for a hug is any place from a doorstep to an executive conference room ... from a church parlor to a football field) - makes happy days happier - imparts feelings of belonging - fills up empty places in our lives - keeps on working to dispense benefits even after the hug is released
