Hugs and hugging are one of those emotions that should
never go out of style! An expression of
caring, love and friendship – we are sometimes just too far removed from our
fellow beings. Hugging pets is also a
beautiful thing that all can enjoy.

According to punchbowl.com - Scientific studies have demonstrated that
hugs are incredibly good for us. A hug can lower your blood pressure, trigger
the release of healthy hormones (like oxytocin), and relieve stress. Doctors
recommend a minimum of 4-6 hugs per day for our emotional and physiological
well-being, but more is always better!

The
record for most hugs given in one hour by an individual is 1,749. Nick Vujicic
achieved this feat at an expo center in Oregon in 2010.
