"I just wanted to let you know that we did receive the Bean Blanket yesterday in time for
Christmas.  Thank you very much for the trouble you went to in order for us to get it so
quickly.  My son absolutely loves it.  He spent a big part of today with it wrapped around
him, and is asleep under it right now.  It really is amazing to me how much it calms and
comforts him.  Anything that brings him some peace means the world to my husband
and me.

Thank you."

Hugs Have Health Benefits
Researchers at the UNC Chappel Hill
studied oxytocin, which is frequently
referred to as the
love hormone, and
discovered that people who get lots of
hugs and other warm contact at home
tend to have the highest levels of oxytocin.

Oxytocin has shown to lower the levels of
stress hormones in our body, reducing
blood pressure, improving mood,
increasing tolerance for pain, and playing
an important role in sustaining more
intimate relationships.

Additional research is confirming that
oxytocin has a significant role in reducing
anxiety, lowering blood pressure, and
promoting an overall sense of well-being.

Oxytocin, produced naturally by our body,
is also proving to have calming and
comforting benefits for children and
adults with Autism, Aspergers, and
ADHD.
