The average length of a hug between two people is 3 seconds.
But the researchers have discovered something fantastic.
When a hug lasts 20 seconds,
there is a therapeutic effect on the body and mind.
The reason is that a sincere embrace produces a hormone called "oxytocin",
also known as the love hormone.
This substance has many benefits on our physical and mental health,
and helps us,
amongst other things,
to relax,
to feel safe and calm our fears and anxiety.
This wonderful tranquilizer is offered free of charge every time we;
Hold a person in our arms,
cradle a child,
cherish a dog or a cat,
dance with our partner,
or simply hold the shoulders of a friend.
