While I was on the train this morning, I heard something from the pipe-in info-mercial that piqued my interest. It was saying something about a study done by a university that has proven to lessen stress. And the deed was something so simple, so easy and you didn’t have to pay for it too. Guess what it is? Holding hands.
A-googling-did-I-go as soon as I settled in the office and viola, the alleged article was there for all the world to see.
The study was done in 2006 when the University of Virginia observed happy married couples. Apparently, wives in happy marriages feel less stress while they’re holding hands with their husbands.
I couldn’t agree more. I feel special and much more loved when the hubby holds my hand, especially in public. Much more if he was the one who reached out for mine.
I know it may sound very “mababaw”, well at least I thought so at first. But now, there’s a study that can prove my claim and quite frankly its just too ingenious and easy. (oh did I mention that already?)
So to all the husbands who read this post, share some love and hold your wife’s hands today.
