Nothing compares to the deep satisfaction and sense of safety that comes from a good cuddle. With COVID, my very small circle of close people that I can normally cuddle with is now down to 1, sometimes even 0 when we are being extra cautious.
I really miss that kind of connection. I have one person in my life that is on board with getting creative around virtual cuddles. We put on a Netflix show, use the party extension so we can sync, pause, chat, use the bathroom, etc., and have a tiny zoom window in the corner of the screen. I have a big body pillow, turn down the lights and get cozy. Sometimes we close our eyes and tell each other how we are holding each other, and send energy.
It's pretty good!
