Stressed Out? ‘Looking for a simple way to calm down? Here’s an additional benefit you can derive from your strong relationship!
Yes, you’ve been working with your partner to create a strong, mutually-loving, sexually-satisfying relationship. Now that the two of you have this together, you can enjoy additional stress-calming benefits from your personal interactions.
The way to do so is through the magic of touch!
University of Virginia’s Psychology Department, neuroscientist James A. Coan, Ph.D., has conducted research into brain activity and emotional experience. He conducted brain scans of his subjects and found that women under stress displayed increased calmness as a result of holding a man’s hand. Stress reduction was most dramatic when the woman and man had close emotional ties.
So, if you want to reduce your level of stress … and do so quickly … relief is as close as holding your partner’s hand!
