Heart2heart Hugs was an epiphany I had while lying paralyzed in the hospital after the accident which broke my neck and changed my life forever. I was amused by a couple of nurses and it made me think how nurses and doctors have to go to work everyday to care for and nurture people, but might not be going home and getting the care and nurturing that they need. It made me remember how during the Covid pandemic loved ones were hugging each other through plastic tents.I woke up out of a deep sleep and all I could think was Heart2heart Hugs. I started researching hugs and found the proven science of how a 22 second hug causes our brains to release “feel good” chemicals i.e. Dopamine, Oxytocin and Seratonin. These natural chemicals gives us a euphoric feeling, while feeling nurtured and cared for, connecting our heart’s energy with the other person.Being a Reiki practitioner, I thought of how we have the ability to connect with each other’s energy via our biolfield, our largest organ that hasn’t been talked much about in the past, but is now becoming recognized as more research about it is coming into the light. We can conciously connect the energy in our hearts.Our hearts are vortexes of energy, and when combined create a bigger more powerful vortex. This is what creates the feeling of “being one” with someone.Inheritantly we all want to feel like how we felt when our parents held us when we were babies. That feeling that makes us feel, nurtured, cared for and protected.A lot of time when we hug people, we get a shoulder, or a pat on the back, or a few second hug where you feel very minimal connection with the other person. We also seemingly naturally, connected our right sides, even though our hearts are on our left side of our body.While the intention is there, “come here, let me give you a hug,” I will bring the awareness to the fact that when we hug each other, we have the ability to heal each other.My mission is to normalize the understanding of the science of how hugging heals people. Hugs make us feel good, raising our vibration which raises the collective vibration of the planet, helping to make the world a better place!
