Did you ever wonder why people hug? When close friends see each other they exchange hugs. When people haven’t seen one other for a really long time they hug out like crazy, picking each other up and sometimes even twirling them around. When we are saying our goodbyes we tend to hug off before we go our separate ways. When we feel amazing or we feel sad, we hug. So what’s in a hug?
When we hug we exchange information through out bodies, the energy we carry at a particular moment in time is like an aura about us. When we feel happy and hug somebody else, they too will feel that joy and happiness, because you radiated it to them through your body.
Hugs can also be very therapeutic. When you feel stressed seek a hug from a friend, it will do you some good. Good friends like to help each other out and therefore, when you feel down a hug may bring you some peace. Sometimes just holding one another can be very empowering and satisfying without saying a word.
When you hug someone, your hearts are exposed to each other. Your arms are around each other encircling and protecting one another. At that moment there is no pretending and both parties are as exposed as the other one. Next time you see your friend, family or a loved one, give them a hug and see how it makes you feel. I hope it makes you feel really good
