In fact, science has long discovered that warm physical contact can stimulate the secretion of oxytocin, a "hug hormone" that can quickly relieve stress and is as effective as natural painkillers.

1. Instinctive needs in the face of sudden fear

1. Stress response after being startled

When a woman suddenly hears a loud noise or encounters an unexpected situation, her adrenaline levels will soar 30 times higher than usual. At this point, being hugged can convey a sense of security through skin contact, helping to quickly reduce cortisol levels, and the heartbeat can gradually return to normal rhythm within 30 seconds.

2. Discomfort in Dark Environments

Human fear of darkness is ingrained in genes, with 20% more rod cells in the female retina sensing light than in males. When alone at night, the tactile stimulation provided by a hug can activate the prefrontal cortex of the brain, effectively alleviating primitive fear.

2. physiological craving due to physical discomfort

1. Before the onset of menstrual syndrome

Elevated levels of prostaglandins can cause uterine spasms, making women with dysmenorrhea particularly sensitive to changes in body temperature. Exposure to a body temperature of around 38 ℃ can promote vasodilation and reduce pelvic congestion, with a lasting effect of about 90 minutes.

2. Fragile moments of cold and fever

When the temperature regulation center is disrupted, appropriate pressure stimulation generated by hugging can activate the hypothalamus and help stabilize the body temperature set point. But pay attention to maintaining air circulation and avoiding overheating.

3. psychological dependence during emotional lows

1. Self doubt after work setbacks

When facing workplace setbacks, hugging for more than 10 seconds can stimulate the secretion of endorphins in the brain. This substance not only enhances pleasure, but also strengthens resilience against pressure, with an effect equivalent to 20 minutes of moderate intensity exercise.

After high social consumption, gentle hugs are like quickly charging emotional batteries. Skin contact can stimulate the vagus nerve, helping the nervous system switch from "combat mode" to "rest mode".

The next time you notice your partner frequently rubbing their arms and repeatedly tidying up their clothes, why not give them a solid bear hug. Hugs of at least 3 times a day, each lasting more than 20 seconds, can increase the sense of security in a relationship by 47%. Remember, the best comfort often does not require language, as body temperature not only conveys heat, but also love that does not require translation.
