Have you had your hugs today?

Psychologist, Virginia Satir originally promoted the Daily Hug Prescription, to fulfill the human need for physical contact.  

Daily Hug Rx

 

4 - Hugs for Survival

8 - Hugs for Maintenance

12 - Hugs for Growth 

I believe and have promoted this prescription for years as your minimum daily dosages adding the following - a minimum of 4-hugs for a fair day, add 8-hugs for a good and for a really GREAT day, get yourself an additional 12-hugs.

How is one to fill this prescription?  You've got to give them away!  As often as you can, share a hug with someone.  Every encounter you can, share a hug.  You'd be surprised how many people are receptive, once they know you're a hugger!

One word of caution be sure to practice Proper Hug Etiquette, which I will address in my next posting. 

Until then, hugs to you-
