Benefits of Erotic Touch: compassion and connection

Benefits of Erotic Touch: compassion and connection

As humans, we need touch like we need air to breathe. And there are tonnes of emotional and physical benefits that come from touch!

So I've been intending to publish a blog about this for ages, and now here it is. Well, this is just part 1, as I realise there is so much to say about the benefits of touch.

Research has shown that touch is essential to human communication, bonding, and health. It plays a role in showing compassion and connecting with others.

In fact, one study led by Matt Hertenstein found that we can communicate compassion through touch. Can you believe it? Participants in the study could correctly guess emotions like compassion, gratitude, anger, and love just by receiving a one-second touch to their forearm from a stranger. How amazing is that?

But it’s not just about communication. Having strong social connections has been linked to an increase in longevity, a stronger immune system, faster recovery from disease, and even a longer life! When we feel connected to others, we’re less likely to feel anxious or depressed.

People with strong social connections have higher self-esteem, empathy for others, and are more trusting and cooperative. And who doesn’t want to be around someone like that?

Problem is we live in a society that often keeps us apart. Increasingly many of us have less closeness and connection and physical touch in our daily lives.

So, the next time you give someone a pat on the back or a friendly arm caress, remember that these small gestures can have a big impact on our emotional and physical wellbeing. It’s all about the power of touch and the language of compassion.

There is so much going on when we interact in a massage session that’s all about all-over touch and merely that prolonged skin-to-skin content is one reason why you walk out on a high.
