Elbow Bumps and Virtual Hugs

Science tells us that we need human touch. Hugs, handshakes, and other physical expressions of affection and connection are essential to our ability to thrive. As a year of isolation has left some of us with touch deprivation, it’s especially important that we don’t also deprive ourselves of the social connection associated with these physical displays of affection. Now more than ever it’s important that we take time each day to connect with people we love, even if it means elbow bumps, virtual hugs, or simply a phone call.
