Theory: hugging increases levels of the "love hormone" oxytocin. A hug for 20 seconds reduces the affects of stress, blood pressure and heart rate. A hug for ten seconds per day helps to build your immune system, ease depression and reduce fatigue.

The Progress of Sherlock Holmes

25 parts Complete Mature

“Love is a psychological and physiological phenomenon, made of synapses and hormones, endorphins and dopamine receptors, pheromones, experiences, commonalities, mutual attraction. Not the muscle of the heart. Inexact metaphor. Designed for poetry, not accuracy.” First person, present tense story told from Sherlock's point of view. Written in early 2011, prior to series 2.
