Resumen
SUAREZ-MORALES, Mario; MENDOZA-POPOCA, Cecilia Úrsula y CARRILLO-ESPER, Raúl. The embrace of the people to their expression in life and art. Rev. mex. anestesiol. [online]. 2023, vol.46, n.3, pp.216-225. Epub 08-Sep-2023. ISSN 0484-7903. https://doi.org/10.35366/111080.
Confinement and social isolation during the COVID-19 pandemic limited close physical contact, especially close ones, of which hugs stand out. The social impact of emptiness and affective isolation still endures. The hug is an innate affective response of the human being that is expressed in different circumstances. It originates from different brain regions, ranging from limbic to cortical, in which a complex interaction between afferents, signaling systems, and neurotransmitters is intertwined, conditioning a neurohormonal response with multisystem impact. The hug goes beyond this complex substrate, it represents the sublimation of the merely anatomical and physiological, to the affective manifestation of the human spirit. The objective of this brief essay is to put to your consideration the neuroscientific bases of the hug and its expression in the complexity of life and art.
