Big Bear


So how many of you are believers in Hug Therapy?

People have done years and years of daft research, verifying whether a hug lowers blood pressure or reduces hypertension or slows down the heart rate or whatever. Why medicinalise (!) something as nice as a hug??

As far as I'm concerned, a hug is warm and comforting, and allows you to hold and be held. Letting you revel in the feeling of being able to cuddle up for just that one second longer. Letting you lean on someone without feeling weak and helpless.

Sigh. I could do with one of those just now.
