This Short Scientifically Explains Why Hugging is Good For You.



What is that desire humans have to give someone a hug when they are feeling down? There is a natural knowing to hug someone when they need that physical connection. It turns out humans need social contact such as pats on the back, hugs, and hand-holding. Even science has confirmed that this all contributes to both your happiness and your health.


Hugs really are rather extremely awesome if you think about them. They’re free, they’re quick, you can do them in public, you can hug people of both sexes, and you can hug people of all ages. Seriously, if you’re not hugging, you’re missing out.


So, to sum it up by hugging more you can increase pleasure, decrease stress, increase human bonding, and all the while decreasing the risk of common heart ailments – sign me up, please!
Ok! Straight after you finish reading this my advice to you is to find a cute animal, someone you love, someone you want to love, or just someone that you think deserves a friendly squeeze and give them a big hug. They’ll appreciate it, and so will you.


Tree Hugging

Science Shows Tree Hugging is Good for Your Health Basically tree hugging is the best way to hug. Tree hugging, that much-maligned hippy generation idea, has now been shown to have scientific validity after all. Contrary to popular belief, touching a tree does make you healthier. You don't even have to touch the tree to get better, just being within its vicinity has the same effect. I’m sure most people have heard of the term “tree-hugger,” often a nickname given to people who care about the environment and the planet. But did you know that hugging trees can improve your health? You don’t even have to hug a tree to reap the numerous health benefits, just being around trees and plants in nature is enough.



In a recently published book, "Blinded by Science", the author Matthew Silverstone, proves scientifically that trees improve many health issues such as; mental illnesses, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), concentration levels, reaction times, depression, and the ability to alleviate headaches. They'll feel better. Matthew Silverstone shows that it has nothing to do with this by proving scientifically that the vibrational properties of trees and plants give us health benefits and not open green spaces.



There has also been a study done that shows the effectiveness of nature in alleviating symptoms of depression and even promoting attention and working memory. Maybe getting back to the basics, and connecting to who we are and where we came from is just what we need to center ourselves in this busy world. They release different healthy energies in hugging time between trees and humans.

Sometimes when we think our lives are falling apart what we don’t see, is that they might just be falling into place. While change is not always welcomed, it is always warranted and often when we think that our lives have fallen into utter disarray, it’s because everything is realigning to match our true intentions and desires…   1. Everything you dislike has become unbearable   There is nothing quite like the feeling of irritability. It’s as if it comes out of nowhere like a mosquito in the night, causing you to itch until your skin is scarred. When the little things in life that never really bothered you much before, start surmounting right before your eyes… know that change is coming. It has to. There is only so much negativity we can take, until finally the last straw breaks and we snap… into action.   2. You feel lost   We’ve all heard that getting lost is the best way to find yourself. Truly though, it sounds a little backward, that is until… we can understand why. When you’re lo

This Electronic Tattoo Turns Your Skin Into A Screen

Putting clock-radio-style numbers on your skin might not seem all that desirable. But flashing digits are the proof of concept for a new electronic skin. In theory, "e-skins" like the one described Friday in Science Advances could be used for everything from monitoring vital signs to making wearable electronics a whole lot more wearable. Lots of researchers are working on so-called smart skins. The idea is to package electronic sensors into a super-thin, super-flexible material - so thin and flexible that the user could wear it like a temporary tattoo. Recently, one research group even made a functional smart skin out of office supplies, such as Post-it notes and foil, showing that the whisper-thin electronic sensors need not be made from expensive materials. Creating smart skins that include display screens is the ultimate goal: This would allow hospitals to monitor the vital signs of their patients with a simple stick-on patch. And in your day-to-day life, you could have
