Forwarding from another post. Some good information, and good advice about the therapeutic effects of a 20 second hug. 
The average duration of a hug between two people is normally around 3 seconds. But researchers discovered when a hug lasts 20 seconds, it produces a therapeutic effect on the body and mind. A sincere hug produces oxytocin, the love hormone.
This wonderful tranquilizer is offered for free every time you take a person in your arms, cradle a child, caress an animal or dance with our partner.
Just 20 seconds…..A mindful, present therapy for both parties”. Just do it…It’s Always well received by Everyone and Heartfelt!
