Sometimes we get down and happiness can feel hard to find. You get lost in your daily routine and everything begins to feel like a blur. It's in these moments that we stop.
My husband and I love to cuddle, it's a perfect way to connect and feel the stress of the day melt away. We both make sure to cuddle and hug daily but that's not the only place I am going for cuddles. We have two cats as well who crave cuddles and attention. When a cat chooses you for cuddles it is such a treat and you instantly feel better. Turns out there are even healing benefits, did you know? Hugging a purring cat can be very soothing.
That can translate into some pretty impressive perks for your health. The benefits include lower blood pressure, reduced risk of stroke, and lower risk of heart attacks. In fact, kitty purrs have even been shown to improve bone density!
Bet you didn't know that or if you did it's a great reminder that our animals don't just crave our attention, they need it just like we need them. Set a minimum of 15 minutes a day to play, interact and cuddle your pets and make sure to stick to it. Searching for Instant Happiness? Hit Your Daily Cuddle Quota.
