Love Hugs

[seeker5]

I had an experience a little while ago that I call "Love Hugs" and I just posted it on my blog. Basically the idea is to hug someone for a long time, while sending them love energy. This is very new to me - combining a hug while focusing on sending love energy to them. I was wondering of other people's experience with this?

Here's my story:

=====

This past few months, I’ve been focusing on love, on sending love energy through me, and to others around me. On this particular day, I was feeling quite disconnected or so, and so I decided to take the evening off from school and do something out of love for myself. I took a nice long warm bath and focused on sending love to myself. That really relaxed me and I started feeling very good and I started feeling very loving, and so connected.

I then decided to go to the bookstore to get me a novel - which is something I pretty much never do as I buy my novels from thrift stores. There, I ran into one of my new friends. She had been feeling quite bad because one of her dear friend was in the hospital. I was feeling so loving and so connected, and I stayed there, talked to her for about two hours at the bookstore.

When the bookstore closed, we then went to her apartment to talk some more. When we got to the apartment, I thought, hey while we’re talking, I could focus on sending her love energy since she isn’t feeling well and it may help her. So while talking, I did just that, focused on sending love energy to her. At one point she leaned her head against my shoulder and then asked for a hug. We had never hugged before as she would just shake my hand when greeting. Yet the hug felt very natural, not awkward or anything like that as it may have been earlier this year had the same situation happened to me. So, it just felt so incredibly natural to just hug her and to even increase my focusing of sending her love energy. I was able to concentrate more on that since we weren’t talking anymore, so the love energy I sent her was probably stronger. We ended hugging for about two hours while sitting on the couch….! It felt so good to hug her, so warm, and she was feeling very good from it too. We eventually layed down on the couch, hugging each other and we fell asleep like that.

We woke up a little bit later, and she went to her bed to sleep and I went back home and went to sleep. I was able to sleep so good, and I woke up feeling so warm, and she did too. All of our troubles were forgotten for a while as that warm feeling that next day was just so incredible. There’s just something so warm about hugging someone for such a long time, just caring for each other like that, while sending them love energy.

I've always been interested in attending a "cuddle party", where even complete strangers lay on the floor and cuddle for hours at a time. But I live in a small conservative town, and the idea of organizing something like that here would raise quite a few eyebrows.

But I also believe in the power of a hug, especially when you're transmitting love!

Do it anyway! The people with their raised eyebrows could also learn something by it!

GREAT story.

For your blog, can you make 3-6 posts show instead of just 2? I think it will really catch readers when they come to your blog as your writings are good.

I gave a love hug to this girl the other day. She was going through so much stuff and telling me about this crazy stuff going on in her life. I could sense what she really wanted was some love. In the middle of her talking I told her, "Come ere. Come ere". (Without the h's) And just gave her a big warm hug while thinking "I love you". It was like she completely relaxed in my arms. It was good for both of us.

Good post, thank you for sharing this.

Thanks for the compliment and the suggestion!

I kind of set it to default to 2 post as that's what Steve had set and I hadn't given it a thought. I can set it to show more posts though if it helps people.

You're welcome!

If I remember correctly, didn't Steve use to have his blog set to display more?

His recent writings have also been long so that might be why.

Hope that helps!
