“We need four hugs a day for survival. We need eight hugs a day for maintenance. We need twelve hugs a day for growth” - Virginia Satir If there’s one thing I look forward to doing during convention, it’s the opportunity to hug as many of you as possible. It’s in that moment, when your heart is pressed against mine, that our souls connect. The average hug may last a mere three seconds, but its impact lingers far beyond. Science tells us that a longer hug provides a sanctuary from stress, is a heartbeat regulator, and a happiness booster. And with every second that passes in a hug, oxytocin flows more freely, enhancing love and trust. But there’s more to a hug than just chemistry. It’s a moment of mindfulness, a form of meditation. As we embrace, we are called to be wholly present, attuned to our feelings and the sensation of touch. Our breaths synchronize, our hearts beat in tandem, and for that fleeting moment, the world fades away, leaving just the shared connection between two souls. So, the next time you hug, linger a little longer, breathe a little deeper, and let the magic unfold. 🤗❤️ #BecomingdoTERRAConvention2023 #PowerOfHugs #EmbraceTheMoment”
