Execs and oxytocin

Posted Oct 30 2008 3:23pm 1 Comment

Unbeknown to me, an article about Cuddle Party was in the FT this weekend - so word is out to 434,000 more, including 23.5% of chief executives in the UK and readers who spend an average of £672 when buying a watch (so say the facts in the FT circulation info!).  You can have a read here.. http://www.ft.com/cms/s/04c3e24e-76a9-11db-8284-0000779e2340.html

Oxytocin, the "cuddle hormone", has taken over .. reads one line in the article!!

I'm still awash with the good effects of oxytocin*.  My cuddly colleague, Suz, who runs Cuddle Parties in San Francisco flew into town for a short business trip.  When two Cuddle Party facilitators meet, some oxytocin is bound to flow!!  After some lovely reiki** and a mini Cuddle Party, I'm still feeling like a human mush-ball.  And in just seven hours time, I'll be receiving a massage from my trading buddy, T.  What a great life !!!

DICTIONARY DEFINITIONS ..

* Oxytocin -hormone and neurotranmitter produced in abundance via cuddles.  All sorts of yummy benefits including: feelings of calm and connection; reduction in cravings, stress and anxiety busting; an anti-depressant, lowers the risk of heart disease and reduces blood pressure.  Promotes wellbeing, social interaction and healing.

** Reiki -A still, subtle and balancing form of hands-on healing performed with the client lying down, fully clothed. The word reiki is Japanese and means “universal life force energy”. As one client said after the treatment: “It felt like my soul left my body”.
