We love giving out free hugs. You might have seen us recently at the Roots of Life Wellness Festival, at Shaw Hill Golf Club Near Chorley, where we must have given out about 200 – 300 hugs that day. Lots of our Infinite Women came and all very kindly and lovingly, shared hugs with folks coming in (and out) and made lots of folks very happy.
We had a variety of reactions – from “No thanks”, to “Oh yes please”, and “Can I have more than one?” Several people, unexpectedly, really sobbed, and apologised for their tears, but we said we welcomed them, and they were among friends and to just let them flow. So many women, older ladies in particular, were so very grateful and appreciative and said that was the first hug they had, had in YEARS!
It was extremely heartwarming to see how well this idea was received and we will certainly be doing it again soon.
