In Western countries, the cow has been known for its milk and other dairy products including meat but In India, killing cows is illegal and a big offense because of their importance and recognition as Mother. But it has been seen that the other western countries are now recognizing the significances of the cows. Recently, it has been observed by the researchers that the cuddling or rubbing back of the cow is the best solution in Covid -19 pandemic as the cow has strong immunity and corona-like viruses can't harm the cow.
It has also been observed that Cow-cuddling is found as the best therapy to get rid of stress and depression-like life-threatening mental diseases. Nowadays a trending therapy for reducing stress and depression is on the peak in which a person has to go to Cow-shed or farmhouse to hug the cow or rub the back of the cow for that a cow owner has been paid a beautiful amount.
It has been proved that hugging the cow reduces stress and depression. Scientists say that hugging to cow is better than meditation because it has a similar effect as we do for the medication. The reason behind that the cow's heart rate is slower than the human beings but the body temperature is more. When we do the medication, our heart rate is slowing and our body is warming and relaxing. In the case of the cow due to some emotional point of view, the hugging of the cows becomes more effective than the meditation done to reduce stress and depression.
In America, many dairy farm owners now provide cow-cuddling services and for that, they have been paid. It is told that for sadness, stress, and anxiety, the people are paying approximately Rs. 22000/- for the 90 minutes of cow-cuddling therapy. In Switzerland and Netherland the cow-cuddling fee is Rs. 3000/- for three hours and this cow-cuddling has been given a special name that is called Cow-Munication.
