JAKARTA - Every couple of course wants to have a romantic relationship. Because, romance is believed to strengthen the relationship. Many are busy thinking of amazing ways to stay romantic with a partner. Meanwhile, simple things like holding hands are often forgotten. Whereas in addition to romantic, holding hands is also believed to lower stress.
A 2006 study conducted by University of Virginia psychologist Dr. James Coan showed that holding hands can lower stress in the body. Reported from Your Tango page, Thursday, May 20, this study involved 16 women whose marriages were very happy. They are involved in stressful situations while monitoring brain activity with an f.M.R.I. machine.

After delivering an electric shock to each woman, the researchers measured the resulting activity in the stress response area in her brain. The researcher then repeated the shock as the women held the hands of strangers then held her husband's hand.
The results of this study showed that when holding a partner's hand there is less stress on a woman's brain than when grasping a stranger's hand. That means that holding hands can make stress less visible from the brain's response.
When couples often hold hands, of course, they will avoid stress. When not experiencing stress, of course, the body will become healthier. And a healthier relationship makes a relationship happier. So, holding hands is not only good for relationships but can also provide health benefits.
