Without touch, a baby dies, the human heart aches, and the soul withers.Were you raised in a "non-touching" atmosphere? Is you "inner hunger" really a yearning for touch? Do you know what your touching "taboos" are? Do you wish you could feel more comfortable touching others or being touched? Are you fulfilling your loved one's need for touch? Would you like to learn touching influences behavior and how it could enrich your daily life?
In The Power of Touch, Phyllis Davis helps you understand that touch is communication on the most basic level. She discusses how touch can improve relationships of all kinds-parent/child, man/woman, friend/friend-help heal the body, and open the heart to a deeper love. She provides insights into the role of touch in infant health, sexual satisfaction, well-being of the elderly, and she suggests a number of activities that will make touching a delightful and valuable tool in your life.
