Expression of Affection

redrock traditions loves to celebrate and encourage families to express their priceless affection toward the ones they love, and we are always encouraged by the numerous families who are continuously thinking about creative ways to show love towards one another.

There are countless ways you can show affection to your loved ones, but one particular expression has been tried and true through various ages, countries and cultures… the hug. Also known as the “universal medicine”, giving and receiving a warm hug is an incredibly simple way to show affection to the ones you love.

It’s hard to avoid feeling that sensation of love and security when we embrace with the people we care for. But little do people know that when a hug is given or received, the feeling we experience is actually triggered by a “cuddle hormone” known as Oxycontin. The release of this hormone gives us that warm and fuzzy feeling that is very unique to a hug. This is why families across the world make hugging a key part in their expression of affection!

Our 2017 Spring product line includes an item that is a perfect reminder for families to reach in for a hug whenever they choose… it’s our Daily Hugs Mistletoe. When developing this concept, our team asked the question, “Why save it for the holidays?” Inspired by the traditional Christmas mistletoe, this Daily Hugs Mistletoe invites your family to keep the love alive every day of the year!

So whether it’s hugging your spouse when you get home from work, hugging your kids when they come home from school, or simply being goofy and see who can hold a hug the longest! Our daily Hugs Mistletoe will bring even more love, laughter and encouragement to your home. Bring home a daily dose of that cuddle hormone today!
