Book excerpt: Hugging is the latest fad trend of recent years and like many other fad craze of previous years, will fade away in the future and be replaced with another fad. However the hugging fad has real health risks which many people do not realize yet.For many years I observed people embracing and hugging in many public and social gatherings with most of huggers enjoying the embracing and hugging. But many times I observed that many huggers were neither happy or enthusiastic with having someone else invade their personal space.That is the reason why I decided to write this book. To point out the good benefits of the human hug but also the huge health risks that people undertake every time they allow somebody else to invade their personal space. The health dangers of that simple hug, no matter how brief or long the hug is, can be mild to a simple offensive and unpleasant smell of somebody's odor to life long injuries or life threatening infections like the flu, tuberculosis, Ebola and other contagious infections. I also point out that people have a choice whether to allow someone to invade their personal space or to opt out of that hug they do not want or they feel that they are obligated to hug someone because of the social trends. The final decision whether to hug someone or not is up to the individual person. If you enjoy hugging and want to hug, regardless of all the health dangers and risks, go ahead and do it.Generally the hugs that are really bad are the ones that can harm you directly or indirectly. Any sneaky hug from behind or the side can cause some injury to you, sprain or strain to some of your joints including the joints of your spine.Any hug that puts pressure or a squeeze on your body is a bad hug that can cause an injury especially to the kids and the weak. A bear hug has the potential to break some ribs or cause some internal injuries and spinal injuries. A running to each other hug can cause serious physical damages. Try to avoid such hugs for the sake of your health.A bad hug is a hug that is unwanted by one of the involved huggers and you can see that on their face. A bad hug is a hug that can cause physical or mental harm to one of the huggers. There is a quote I saw somewhere that goes like this : "DO NOT FEAR THE ENEMY THAT ATTACKS YOU, BUT FEAR THE FAKE FRIEND THAT HUGS YOU" And I want to add my own quote to that: FEAR THE ATTACKS OF YOUR ENEMY AND THE HUGS OF YOUR FRIENDS......... BOTH can be DANGEROUS TO YOUR HEALTH" .Many hugs can cause harm to your body directly or indirectly by introducing viruses, germs and other substances during the invasion of your personal space with a simple hug no mater how brief it is. Some of those viruses and germs can cause serious infections like colds , the flu and more serious infections like Ebola, tuberculosis or the bubonic plaque.Try to avoid the bad hugs for the sake of your health. But do in a genuine welcoming manner with open arms and a huge smile on your face. Enjoy the embrace hugging of that special person you have in your arms.But if, on the other hand do not want to hug someone don't do it.You have no obligation to hug anyone you don't feel comfortable to hug. Period. Just raise your open right hand in front of you and declare with a smile , " SORRY I AM NOT A HUGGER".Smile and nod or wave a welcome or good bye. that's it you are off the hook, and people will appreciate and respect your wishes and personal space!!I recommend GOOD HUGS ONLY A good hug is the one that both persons are willing to hug each other. They face each other with open welcoming arms, a big smile on their face and they gently embrace each other. They hold each other warmly but they do not squeeze or touch any sensitive area without permission, patting gently the other person on the back
