Apapacho

 

"Apapachar": the complicity of caresses given with the soul

"They say that" apapachar "(" cajoler ", in its closest meaning in French) is one of the prettiest words that exists and the action of" caressing with the soul "is still so. This beautiful word comes from the Nahuatl word “apapachoa” (an indigenous language of Mexico) and has already been around the world.

The term in Nahua
tl doesn't have this emotional meaning, but the one used in Spanish ("apapachar") has emphasized the "caress of the soul" aspect. Actually, "apapacho" comes from "papachoa", a verb used to refer to the actions of kneading, massaging or fondling. So, for all derivations of the term, here we are talking about "caressing with the soul" and bringing out "the emotional nude".

An "apapacho" is more than a hug and a good time, it's more of a bond, an emotional encounter, something that goes beyond a simple affectionate touch. Perhaps for most of us fondling with the soul is very clear, but for many, the intensity is greater or lesser depending on the culture or vision of tenderness.
Caress with the soul, fill us with emotions. We can be seduced with words and caresses beyond skin contact, traditional senses, sentimental rebirth and the reaction of our emotions. When it comes to feelings, there is a lot written down, but ultimately everyone has to think, feel and validate their own feelings.

We are emotional beings who think through the language of emotions and that is why we know that hugging and showing our affection to others is one of the best gifts we can give.

Because to feel caressed with the soul is to feel the union of our emotions. The problems suddenly disappear, the anguish gets enveloped in love and at times we link our constellations to those of each other.

"Apapachar" is bringing dazzling peace, because there is nothing more pleasant than knowing that you are loved, valued and supported.

The chemical dance of our emotions

​

What we metaphorically call "the union of two souls" turns into a chemical dance at the brain level. Our emotions combine subtly in the form of dopamine, serotonin, oxytocin and norepinephrine.

With the hugs through which we bond, we light up an infinite number of emotional constellations that stimulate our well-being and help us to regain control, by providing us with a rudder which, without a doubt, structures us in life.

Because ultimately, our socio-emotional development largely depends on these caresses. So it is great to focus on your experiences, improve our awareness and give love.
