This January 21st, as we celebrate International Hugging Day, let’s remember that hugs and cuddles aren’t just for comfort—they’re also a powerful tool for better health. 🤗✨

You might not think about it often, but research shows that physical touch can reduce stress, boost your immune system, and even lower blood pressure. And while this might seem like an odd thing to celebrate, it’s a reminder of how precious our connections with others truly are.
Life can change in an instant, as Catherine Ashton knows all too well after surviving a car accident and losing a close friend unexpectedly. Her journey inspired her to create Critical Info, a platform for end-of-life planning, reminding us all to cherish every moment.

So, don’t wait.
Hug the ones you love today!
