Even still, building trusting relationships is a process and is not something that takes place within a few moments in time or is limited to happening within a certain time period. It is quite possible that you may not even know it is happening until you experience that first smile or other unique cue, and respond appropriately. For that reason I use this sub-lingual homeopathic oxytocin accelerator. I find that it really supports these behaviors and helps me to feel more.

It may be a stretch for most of us to hug a stranger but when I was writing the article, I had vivid memory of two young man who video taped a simple pleasure of hugging strangers. We hug friends and family members without a second thought. It takes courage for someone to hug a person unknown. My notion is not to hug someone who dislikes it but I see no issues with hugging someone who is at the cross road of despair and hopelessness. It's a powerful waves of feelings we can send to someone who needs our uplifting spirit. Thanks for defending me. I'm in owe for your kindness.

Cassaundra- I have always enjoyed getting a massage and though I haven't done it a lot, I've been meaning to get more. I have read that it is important to continue to get massages particularly as we get older as we usually get touched less and less. White Hot Magik- I used to have a hard time with touching my patients but now I am very comfortable and secure with doing my exam. Practice makes perfect. Barbara- And hugs to you too as well. :) Guin- Yes I can see how that might get you in trouble!

Those poor babies who don't bond with their mothers (or a parent figure) have so many problems when they get older. I don't know if I would want to go around hugging strangers, but I am a hugger with friends and family. With that being said, ((((hugs))))) to you. :) Barbara Swaffords last blog post..<a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/bloggingwithoutablog/DWWZ/~3/321095996/" rel="nofollow">FEFF - How To Get More Hits On Old Posts</a> Hi Dr. Cason,

I will admit to having a harder time with strangers. I marvel and massage therapists, nurses and doctors who are so easy with it. A skill I need to learn for sure. With my kids and family maybe I need to back off. ; ) White Hot Magiks last blog post..<a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/WhiteHotMagik/~3/322127218/getting-things-out-of-my-head.html" rel="nofollow">Getting things out of my head.</a> I agree, it is so important.

We must be touched and babies must have the hands on touch to grow and develop properly. I have been learning that massage can help and even cure a multitude of woes........physically, mentally, spiritually, and emotionally! I have thoroughly enjoyed my massage training and I am continuing on to learn more......this semester is on how to assess and work on the specialty populations......touch is SO important in SO many ways!
