🌿 Daily Hug #190: The 17-Second Rule

Psychologists say a genuine hug that lasts 17 seconds can calm your nervous system, reset stress hormones, and make your brain trust the world again.

Seventeen seconds.

Beautiful Soul,

If a hug can do all that… imagine what a moment of kindness toward yourself could shift today.

Try giving yourself 17 seconds of grace.

It might change everything.

With nervous-system love,

The Soul Council

P.S. Time it if you need to. Your brain won’t mind the experiment.
