Hug Your Valentine and Create the Love Hormone
by Karen L. Semmelman, EEM-AP, JD, AAML(03-12)
It is the season of romance, of sharing our love with those close to us. Let’s understand why hugging is so important in creating a strong bond with loved ones. Are you a hugger or an avoider? After reading this article, hopefully you will join the ranks of the huggers. Why? — Because hugging increases the levels of oxytocin, known as the “love hormone”. Sounds good, doesn’t it? At an Energy Medicine workshop on hormones, the presenter reminded us of the power of hugging and the famous quote by psychotherapist Virgina Satir, who states: We need 4 hugs a day for survival. We need 8 hugs a day for maintenance. We need 12 hugs a day for growth.”

Our auric field which surrounds the body is comprised of 7 layers, like the Russian Doll sets. When we hug someone and move into each other’s auric fields, we are sharing energy. The skin contains networks of tiny pressure centers that sense touch and then connect to the brain through the vagus nerve. This nerve winds its way through the body, connecting to organs, to all the chakras, to the gut (our second brain) and to the heart. The nerve is connected to oxytocin receptors and thus stimulation of the vagus triggers an increase in oxytocin, which in turn “leads to the cascade of health benefits” and a feeling of bliss with well-being.
The bottom line is that the more physical touching through hugging, the more oxytocin produced, resulting in powerful health giving properties and good will.
Oxytocin is released by the pituitary gland. The pituitary gland works hand in hand with the spleen organ. Spleen’s energy is the first energy used by Triple Warmer when under stress. So the more hugs, the more spleen is calmed and the more Triple Warmer is calmed, resulting is a boost to your physical and emotional well-being.
Reach out to your spouse, children, friends, family, and pets! Given our celebration of Valentine’s Day, what a great way to remember this romantic holiday daily!
