My daughter has introduced a new idea to me called the 20 second hug-- and I highly recommend it! We have always been huggers-- she read some research showing decreased cortisol/ increased oxytocin using extended hugs. So she started giving everyone in the family 20 second hugs, and now we are all hooked. We arent counting seconds-- just guesstimates on the time. Last night, both grown kids were over, scarfing up my turnip greens (yeah, keep at it parents, eventually they start loving those veggies), telling funny stories, and giving hugs. Put me in the best mood! One of my co-workers who retired used to wait in the hallway on Fridays and give us hugs if we wanted them-- grandmotherly person, lovely, lovely hugs. Please, yall, find someone and have a 20 second hug today. If you see me and you havent had one yet, speak up and I will fix that situation right away!
