	~~== Definition ==~~		'''Snuggle''' refers to the act of [[cuddling]] or [[embracing]] closely, often for the purpose of providing [[comfort]], [[security]], and [[warmth]]. It is a common behavior observed in [[humans]] and many [[animal]] species.

	Snuggling ~~involves~~ physical ~~closeness~~ and ~~contact, typically characterized by wrapping one's arms around another person or being wrapped in another's arms~~. It is often ~~associated with warmth~~, ~~comfort~~, ~~and a sense of security~~.		== Causes ==
			Snuggling is primarily caused by the desire for [[physical contact]] and [[emotional bonding]]. It is often initiated in response to feelings of [[cold]], [[loneliness]], or the need for [[reassurance]].

	== ~~Physiological Effects~~ ==		== Symptoms ==
			The primary symptoms of snuggling include feelings of [[comfort]], [[security]], and [[warmth]]. It may also lead to the release of [[oxytocin]], a hormone associated with [[bonding]] and [[stress reduction]].

	~~Snuggling~~ can ~~trigger the release~~ of [[~~oxytocin~~]]~~, a hormone known~~ for ~~its role in social bonding and stress reduction~~. ~~Oxytocin is sometimes referred to as the "cuddle hormone" or "love hormone" because it is released during physical touch~~, ~~such as~~ hugging, ~~cuddling, and snuggling~~.		== Treatment ==
			While snuggling itself is not a condition that requires treatment, it can be considered a form of [[therapy]] for those seeking [[emotional support]]. Common forms of snuggling include [[cuddling]] with a partner, [[hugging]] a friend, or even holding a [[pet]].

	The ~~release of oxytocin during~~ snuggling ~~can lead to several physiological effects~~, ~~including:~~		== Prognosis ==
			The prognosis for snuggling is excellent, as it is a natural and beneficial behavior that promotes [[emotional well-being]].

	* ~~'''Reduced stress levels''': Oxytocin can lower levels of the stress hormone~~ [[~~cortisol~~]]~~, promoting relaxation and reducing anxiety.~~		== See also ==
	* ~~'''Lower blood pressure''': Physical touch and the release of oxytocin can help lower blood pressure, contributing to cardiovascular health.~~		* [[Cuddle therapy]]
	* ~~'''Enhanced mood''': Snuggling can increase feelings of happiness and contentment, partly due to the release of oxytocin and endorphins.~~		* [[Hugging]]
			* [[Oxytocin]]
	~~== Psychological Benefits ==~~		* [[Emotional support]]

	~~Snuggling is associated with numerous psychological benefits, including:~~

	* ~~'''Increased feelings of connection''': Physical closeness can enhance feelings of intimacy and strengthen emotional bonds between individuals.~~
	* '''Improved mental health''': Regular physical affection, such as snuggling, can contribute to better mental health by reducing symptoms of depression and anxiety.
	* '''Enhanced sense of security''': Being held closely can provide a sense of safety and security, which is particularly important for children and individuals experiencing stress or trauma.

	~~== Snuggling in Relationships ==~~

	~~In romantic relationships, snuggling is often a way for partners to express love and affection. It can be an important aspect of non-verbal communication, helping partners feel connected and valued.~~

	~~In familial relationships, snuggling is common between parents and children. It serves as a way to nurture and comfort children, promoting healthy emotional development.~~		== References ==
			<references />
	~~== Snuggling in Animals ==~~

	Many animals engage in behaviors similar to snuggling, such as grooming, nuzzling, and huddling. These behaviors serve similar purposes, such as strengthening social bonds, providing warmth, and reducing stress.

	~~== Cultural Variations ==~~

	~~The practice and perception of snuggling can vary across cultures. In some cultures, physical affection is openly expressed and encouraged, while in others, it may be more reserved or private.~~

	== ~~Also see~~ ==

	* [[Oxytocin]]
	* [[Cortisol]]
