This is interesting and kinda cute in an "awww" kinda way. Personally I need to see a lot more indepenent duplication and a much larger sample size before I'm scientifically convinced.
My husband and I held hands a lot and when he was in hospital dying even though he was drugged on morphine he didn't want me to let go of his hand
@ShabbyChicGirl thank you x
Swearing increases pain tolerance, too, but it lowers the chance of getting your hand held... Maybe I'll stop swearing when I find a hand to hold.
You do understand that doesn't sound like a threat to me, right?
@ScienceBiker It's a fine line, isn't it?
@ScienceBiker Perspective is everything and life is nothing more than a series of choices, no? We find what we seek. In this case, I'd be certain to err on the endearing side.
But of course that's so..bio feedback can even allow patients to regulate their blood pressure, heart rates, and improve medical conditions. The "placebo effect" has already proven that people can heal themselves.
It amazes me that so many people on this forum don't seem to realize that matter is another form of energy..declaring that only what we can touch is "real," yet they use electricity, wi-fi, and know there's software that can work devices from thought only.
Love it. I love to hold hands, and now there's all the more reason to.
Aaaaaaaand lonely.
Same,girl,same.
