January 21, the International Anniversary Day is celebrated. Why are we so important to tactile contact? And how are the hugs?

According to the tradition of the holiday, enter into friendly embraces this day, you can even a stranger.


January 21, the International Hug Day is celebrated (International Hug Day). Simple human hugs that accompany us all their lives in the relationships of parents and children, friends and lovers, colleagues and partners. The main "weapon" of hugs - in our body they raise the level of hormone oxitocin, which removes depression and the feeling of loneliness. And as a good medicine, they stabilize blood pressure, reducing the risk of heart attacks and strokes.

It was founded in the United States in 1986. First as the National Huming Day (National Hugging Day), and soon acquired an international scale. The name of the author of this holiday is unknown, but it is believed to come up with his students. As it should be students, they offered this day to enter into friendly arms of everyone who comes. Even completely unfamiliar, but people liked. And how great it is! After all, those who embrace, and those who hug, have a sense of security, love and harmony with them and the world at this point.

Today, the psychological and physical benefit of the arms is so absolutely that they began to be produced for money! Namely - less than a year ago, the workshop opened in London: 30 pounds for the 4-hour session. A little later, paid arms included in the menu of the Tokyo Bar. And in the US, a LIKE-A-HUG gadget appeared, which is an inflatable vest connected to a computer, hugging his owner when his page on Facebook earns "Like".

Originally from childhood

Tactile contact is needed to all, but children in particular. And small boys and girls equally. When the transitional age comes, the boys are useful to contact, expressed in a friendly form of handshakes, patters on the shoulder, etc. And the girls-teenagers in 10-12 years continue to need to argue, and the need for them increases. If the child hug a little, he can grow with the feeling of emptiness, which, in turn, generates the fear of contact with new acquaintances. Simply put, it will be bad and difficult to converge with other people. Most likely, this is explained by the same physiology. After all, it gives us a feeling of protection and relieves anxiety due to the production of oxytocin, as well as endorphins that take pain and give the feeling of euphoria. The latter, in particular, increase stress resistance, more precisely - we react calmer on a lot precisely thanks to the endorphine feed. In particular, the need to include previously unfamiliar people in their lives.

Arrows joggle

And yet it is useful to hug only with those we know well. An opposite effect with a stranger has an opposite effect, a group of neurophysiologists led by Jürgen Zandcüler, head of the Vienna Medical University of Medical University, was installed. "A positive effect occurs only when people trust each other when they connect their feelings mutual. If people are not familiar or hug is not so desirable with one side or another, its consequences will be different. " All the case, again in the synthesis of oxytocin, hormone, which is produced by a pituitary gland to enhance the proximity between parents, children and married couples. In women, for example, oxytocin level rises sharply during the process of childbirth and breastfeeding to make a closer communication of the mother with the child. In a stranger, oxytocin is not in a hurry. "On the contrary, it can lead our body to stress," Zandcüler continues. - The fact is that at the time of such a arms involuntarily disrupts the usual distance between people, and this is unconsciously perceived by us as a threat. In such situations, our body begins to produce a cortisol stress hormone. " There is no one to hug! According to followers of the theory of stress of Hans Selre, our organism chooses one of two reactions - or Bay, or run.
