Reasons why to Cuddle =)

.....shussssshhh....

Valentines day is coming up... very soon...i hear you should seal the day by cuddling =)

Are you ...

Tired of lame excuses for not cuddling?

do you need healthy reasons to get your significant other to cuddle with you?

 or...do you simply want to know why cuddling makes you feel soo good. ?

Here are 3 Healthy reasons why YOU + Him/Her should cuddle..not just because you demand it..but your health does =)

1.  It reduces high blood pressure & stress: 

    This has to do with Physical contact. 

Take for instance, a patient who is about to under go surgery & the nurse reassures him/her but goes a step further & touches his/her arm... the person suddenly feels less stressed and calm. BINGO!  Cuddling makes you feel calm & secure which ultimately reduces your blood pressure & keeps you in a chill-laxx mode. 

You ask why? This has to do with the body increasing the oxytocin levels <-- a "pair-bonding/ feel-Good" hormone which helps the body reduce blood pressure & anxiety. 

2. It FEELS GOOD!! :

    Hugs feel good, Kisses feel good [great], cuddling most definitely should feel G-O-O-D. 

  LG [Life's-Good...when you cuddle]. 

  why? It has to do with the "feel-Good" hormone oxytocin ..which makes you feel happy & in la-la- Land. 

 Also the body increase endorphin levels. Ever felt really good after eating your favorite food or candy? or ever felt good after working out? this feel-good feeling has to do with an increase of endorphin..these are neurotransmitters in the brain and gives you that Feel- Good feeling. 


3. BONDING TIME!!!:
   When a mother truly bonds with her baby..it does not happen when she is stares down at the baby or strokes the baby.. but & only when she cuddles with her baby. So cuddling with your adult-baby creates a good bonding experience for both. 
There is a sense of security and openness which ultimately leads to comfort in communicating. Communication is healthy in any relationship
..less fights..less glares..less wrinkles..less screaming..less arm-workout when you throw things..the 'less' list goes on & on & on. 
cuddling is the secret to having a true bond. 


If he/she does not want to cuddle..especially on Val-day. Don't Hiss & Glare or Curse at him/her. Just throw some Healthy facts at His/Her face! and watch them come crawling to you for some cuddle-cuddle. 
Get a cuddle buddy! 
why? because it is Doctor recommended 


so lets be like fabric softener & snuggle 
=)
