How To Deal With Loneliness, Day 1 Loneliness Project

During the pandemic, I've been able to deepen my relationships with those I'm closest to. This has happened because we rely on each other more since we spend more time together in close quarters. I taught some of my family how to meditate.

Even before the pandemic, loneliness was considered to be an epidemic. Loneliness doesn't necessarily have to do with other people. You can feel quite content by yourself but you may feel alone in a crowd. You may even feel lonely with loved ones around you. Loneliness is more about feeling connected with others, yourself, and the world. Explore ways to feel more connected with meditation techniques all week long.

 

You're invited to join our Combatting Loneliness Challenge. Begin a new journey by trying something new, or reaching out to someone who needs help.

This is day 1 of a 7-day meditation series, Loneliness Project, episodes 2439-2445.
