Benefits of TOUCH :

The quality of our relationships plays a big role in our brain’s feelings of happiness. One of the important way to release oxytocin (bonding hormone) is through touching. Obviously, it’s not always appropriate to touch most people, but small touches like handshakes and pats on the back are usually okay. For people you’re close with, make more of an effort to touch more often. Spend time with friends, have fun and give more hugs. Neuroscience says it’ll boost your happiness.
