Why does holding hands feels so good?

Saturday, January 2, 2010

If there is one part of your body with a great number of sensitive, astutely accurate sensory receptors communicating with the brain for interpretation and integration, it is the hand particularly its palmar side (palm) and fingers. Compared to other parts of the body, you will observe that your hand is able to differentiate a wide variety of sensations and recognize with sharp accuracy various objects placed in it even with your eyes closed. You can tell if it’s a toy, a pen, or something else. When you hold on to something sharp, you can tell if it is pointed or bladed. How is this so?

The hand is gifted with the ability to pick up the slightest difference in texture (is it coarse, soft or softer?), temperature (is it warm, warmer, or cold?), pressure (is it painful or tolerable?), touch (is it light or heavy?), vibration (is it pulsating or shaking?), and combinations of these (is it wet, dry, or slippery?).
Needless to say on a side note, the fingers have nails that can sensuously scratch during hand holding sessions! J  In addition, the hands and fingers can be very skilful in executing maneuvers and dexterous manual tasks!

Given all of the above sensations, the brain will do the rest of the magical experience.  Is he nervous or confident? Is he gentle, is he rough? Is he romantic, is he sweet? Is he into me? Is this pleasurable? Am I enjoying? So on and so forth.

Humans are definitely created with remarkable abilities to detect, perceive, and experience a myriad of sensations.  With all the sensory abilities our hands are blessed with, we cannot dismiss the notion that truly, holding hands is a wonderful human experience!

Can anyone now tell of his unforgettable hand holding experience?
