Couldnt imagine this going down well in NY. I think most of us are not huggy-feely types of people. Luckily, I have chosen a profession that challenges some notions, and releases the strings that may ordinarily hold me back from reaching out to someone and hugging them. Oftentimes, I have noticed that the simple act of (active) listening, followed by a hug and a smile, initiates the first of many processes of healing. Whether they were relatively healthy, or very sick with MRSA where I had to gown & glove up and wear a mask, I have hugged many intimate-strangers (patients). The results prove positive, and it is one the most rewarding experiences for both patient and nurse. Cant help but wonder though, if I were doing something else in life would I have missed out on realizing the importance and positive results that come from the simple act of a hug (?) I may be guilty of taking this simple act for granted with my inner-circle of family/friends. youtu.be/vr3x_RRJdd4
