Sharing space with a loved one for even one minute is enough to completely turn a bad day into a good one. But it’s not just something you intuitively know, it’s something that has been medically studied and shown to actually protect you health.

Healthy Mindframe, Medical Reports, Positive Parenting / By Laura Koniver, MD
