How to Cuddle and the Benefits of Cuddling
Have you ever wondered how to cuddle? It’s sometimes not as easy as it seems! But figuring out how to comfortably cuddle up with your spouse has major benefits. The benefits of cuddling are profound. Our bodies release hormones that bond us and keep us healthy and happy! Figuring out how to cuddle also makes us feel a close connectedness that we all need to thrive.
We’ve come up with some tricks and tips to help guide you on your way to cuddling like a pro! First off, take it slow. Lean your bodies against each other and wrap your arms around the other person. Readjust until you both find a good position to melt into each other. You can lightly rub or scratch the arm of your significant other, too. When you’re wanting to get more comfortable, you can try the spoon position. Just remember: Couples that cuddle together, stay together!
We’ve created the perfect resource to ensure your next cuddling session is a success. Now presenting, a romantic cuddle kit for two! It’s quick, easy, AND romantic.

When my fioncé gets back from her trip she will definatly be thanking me! So this is me thanking you. I have never really been good at the romantic thing so I’m giving all the credit to you guys! All of the above items have been added to the shopping list for my next outing. Thanks again!
Yay!!! You are so welcome! Happy romancing.
This is a great idea!!!!
I just stumbled on this site when I was trying to look up cheap date ideas in my area. I didn’t even think about making a cheap date we could do at home! My boyfriend and I have been together for about 2 years and just started living together 3 months ago. In those 3 months, we’ve gone on one date. and it was my birthday. I told him last night that we need to establish a date night once a week or once every two weeks and he agreed that it would be fun. Normally our dates are fancy, expensive dinners and I know neither of us will want to spend the money (since we take turns paying when we go on lunch/dinner dates) for an expensive night out. When I found this site, I went through one page of the ‘at home’ dates and fell in love. I’ve bookmarked multiple articles and I can’t wait to use some of your ideas, along with a few other ideas I’ve had as twists on your dates. They’re all so fun and I am so excited I found this website last night! I already told one of my friends at work about it this morning and she said she’s definitely going to look it up as well. Thanks for publishing all of these amazing ideas online, they’re definitely going to be helpful!
SO glad that you found us, Haley! 🙂 Thanks for passing the word along too! XOXO
Cuddle basket, I LOVE IT!!! I’m totally stealing that idea for our anniversary getaway!
Thank you for linking up with HWC.

I love this idea! I’m definitely doing this soon. Cold weather is perfect cuddling weather.
Oooh, I agree! Hope he loves it!
What a cute idea! With three kids, work , homework, sports, etc… it does get hard to make time for just the two of us. I may have to try this basket idea (will have to get babysitters first though!) Happy to have come across your site – I have bookmarked it and will be back!
With three little ones of my own, I SO know what you mean! Hope you get your cuddlin’ in soon. 🙂
LOVE this idea! So simple yet sweet and meaningful! I’m going to put one together myself..thanks Becca!
You’re welcome! 😉
This is a great idea! I feel like hubby has been so neglected since our baby was born. This would be an easy and fun thing to put together! Thanks for the printable!
You’re welcome! Enjoy the cuddlin’
