The Power Of Touch

You have healing power within you.

It’s common knowledge today that physical touch can be healing, not as in healing terminal cancer, but healing in the sense of releasing endorphins that help lessen pain. Healing the spirit…

Human touch has been proven to light up areas of the brain controlling our body’s own natural opiates.

If you go to a critical care facility, or to a well-run assisted living center or nursing home, you will quickly see each employee taking every opportunity to touch — physically touch their residents.

Well, I think emotional touching is just as powerful.

When you find ways to touch the hearts, the feeling centers of listeners’ brains, they feel better.

And, actually, so will you.

Do it really well just once and you’ll know just how powerful you can be.
