Consider Yourself Hugged

Enjoy a hug today.

Individual Participation

• Walk up to anyone. Look them in the eye, smile and ask them if you can give them a hug. If they agree, wrap your arms around them and give them a five second squeeze, gently.

How can I ask for a hug?

• Would you like a hug?
• May I have a hug?
• Do you need a hug?
• I need a hug; would you mind?

How can I offer a hug?

• If you ever need a hug, just ask.
• Say thank you with a hug.
• Say hello with a hug.
• Greet guests at the door with a hug.
• Say goodbye with a hug.

Our hope is that by giving hugs this way, people all over the world will take the five-second challenge and give a hug. Please be sure to ask
permission before hugging.
Give it a try!
