This Valentine's Day, consider what all types of love bring to your life

  • By DEVI SHASTRI AP Health Writer

Valentine's Day is for lovers — but you don't need a romantic soulmate to celebrate. Experts say the holiday is a chance to consider just how rich, diverse and beneficial every form of love is. It can come from family, friends, pets, neighbors or community. Experts also say it's good to have several sources of connection, because one person can't provide all the connection you will need. Love's strong social connections, bonding and support are linked to better health.
