9.Cuddling is good for your health
Just like hugging your significant other can help you feel better and less stressed, cuddling can also be good for your health in numerous ways. According to scientists, the simple act of cuddling can make you feel safe, cozy, and loved but also healthy.
Cuddling is a great way to boost your immune system due to the release of oxytocin but also to alleviate pain, reduce social anxiety and lower the risk of heart disease, according to one study conducted by researchers at the Stanford University School of Medicine.
When your heart is happy, it does not have to work overtime to fight the effects of stress and sickness. The happier you are, the healthier you’ll be and the longer you’ll live.
