Big group hug!

1. Hugging induces oxytocin in the body.
2. Hugging builds stronger bonds with people you see every day.
3. Hugging lowers stress.
4. Hugging lowers blood pressure.
5. Hugging is a reciprocal good deed.
6. Hugging feels incredible.
7. Hugging can turn a bad mood upside down.
8. Hugging reconnects the mind with the body.
9. Hugging more makes us better huggers.
10. Hugging cultivates patience.
