~Every hug carries a powerful “punch”.~

~LOVE REPORTER Melodie Munro~

Over 100 Cities around took part in the Hugs for Peace campaign our friend Vince coordinated that took place on September 21

Such a little thing -- a hug -- everyone can do it -- it takes no special training -- no “skill” -- no age, race, religion, or sex can do it any better then another…

It is freely available to everyone -- pretty much anytime (technically we can hug our teddy bears, our dogs, even ourselves if another person isn’t immediately available)

and every hug carries a powerful “punch”. A study by University of North Carolina researchers found that hugs increase the “bonding” hormone oxytocin and decrease the risk of heart disease.

This should be every day in the world.
