Somebody Hold Me: The Single Person's Guide to Nurturing Human Touch : 9781732879201

Nearly 50% of Americans checked the "single" box in the 2010 census. Because we equate touch with sex, many of us suffer alone when we crave physical comfort and tenderness. Somebody Hold Me: The Single Person's Guide to Nurturing Human Touch takes a simple, radical approach to health and relationships by teaching you how to get more platonic touch. Somebody Hold Me walks you through the increasingly fraught physical space between humans, and allows for more connection and closeness through giving and receiving structured touch in your existing relationships.

Designed for people in alternative communities (Burners, pagans, polyamorists, kinksters, asexuals, furries, ren festers, cosplayers) who have large circles of friends, Somebody Hold Me gives you a step-by-step guide to share touch with people you already know. Enjoy better health, feel happier, and deepen your friendships. Get off your phone, out of your head, and into your body with the simple practice of nurturing human touch.
