After a long day at work, snuggling up to your partner or simply giving your mother or father a loving embrace has a soothing effect. Valentine’s Week is not just special for those who are dating or are in a relationship, but for all those who are in love and care for. Feb 12 is dedicated to Hugs, as it is Hug Day.

A hug to your loved ones says how important they are to you. Hugging someone not only brings comfort but also builds trust. A warm embrace can make you feel connected with the other, improve bonds and increase your happiness quotient.

As hugs and handshakes become the casualty of pandemic-induced social distancing norms, the warmth in exchange for greetings goes missing. Stress and anxiety on the other hand are taking a heavy toll on people’s mental health. We can only hope the coming months are better than before and people can recharge their emotional batteries with plenty of hugs.

Scientific studies also vouch for the many benefits of hugging. It not only reduces the level of cortisol, the stress hormone but also brings relief in pain and relaxes muscles.

On this hug day, send a sweet hug day quote as a message to make your special someone feel your warm embrace by your words. We have here for you – various lists of hug day wishes for boyfriend, girlfriend, husband, wife, friends, even for long-distance loved ones. Find your favorite hug day wish and send them as a token of a hug to your lover or friend.
