The HUG4LOVE Story

My name is Jean-Philippe Marier, I’m from Quebec, Canada. 

After seeing the negative impact of the pandemic and the social distancing measures on people’s mental well-being, I started to think about ways to help. 

Since lots of people were missing physical touch and that a hug has so many benefits including improving mental well-being, I thought: ”I will give free hugs everyday, everywhere around the world to everyone who wants”.  That’s how HUG4LOVE is born. 

Than I decided to mix my project with my biggest passion: self-development. 

In order for me to reach my dream life of travelling the world and giving hugs to thousands of people, I had to transform. I had to change my mindset, grow my self-love (self-esteem) and learn how to discipline every area of my life (Physical health, Mindset health, Relationship health, emotional health, Financial health) 

I’m currently giving free hugs daily, inviting people to join me on a free hug adventure and I’m interviewing them to know their inspiring life/hug stories. 

I’m doing it to encourage people to invest time in their well-being to ultimately transform their lives.  

I started the Movement in February 2022 by giving the first hug in Montreal, Canada and I never stopped. Watch my adventures around the world on Youtube
