Oxytocin reduces the severity of stress and fear and creates a sense of trust. It is produced not only during hugs, but even if we are on good terms with others.
The main way that provides a surge of oxytocin in the brain is touch. That's why it's important to touch the people you're close to more often. Handshakes, pats on the back or shoulders, hugs (and orgasms too!) - all this triggers the "neurophysiology of happiness."
While we enjoy hugs, the hormones that are released in the body have a positive effect on physical health. When someone touches you, you feel the touch on your skin, which activates pressure receptors called Pacini corpuscles. These bodies send a signal to the vagus nerve, the wave of which is responsible for many things that happen in our body, including lowering blood pressure.
A warm hug that lasts at least six seconds releases mood-boosting hormones. In a short time, without words, you can express emotions, reduce stress, strengthen the immune system.
P.S. I want to find a relationship here!
