emotions experts says giving someone a hug for 10 seconds can make you happier

March 27, 2024 4:29am CST
I would have agreed with this belief if giving a familiar person a hug for 10 seconds will make me happier but emotional experts believe that giving a stranger a hug for 10 seconds work best. Yes, they say it will make you feel better when you trust a stranger and hug them for at least 10 seconds. Do you agree with this?

It might help but I don't think I will try it. I will stick to people I know

@wolfgirl569 Should a stranger hug me I would call the police thinking he is a mad man (or woman)

At one time, for me, this might have been true and that was only a might. I do not find comfort in hugs..it does nothing to change a very bad situation. Sad but for me this is true.

I don't agree with this assumption, happiness emanates from the heart, hugging is a physical activity, so there are two opposite activities.

Yes ofcos that courage u experience at that moment triggers enough adrenaline which over comes fear and in return calmness is a reward

I prefer to hug people that I know well I don't hug anyone. I like to give hugs to people that I really like
