Manage episode 376006559 series 3480833
What was the last time you feel lonely?
Why do we develop social pain?
How harmful is loneliness?
How can we forge meaningful connections in a world that is both unprecedentedly connected and isolating?
In today's episode, we dive deep into the science, psychology, and practical ways to address one of humanity's most silent struggles—loneliness. Loneliness is not merely a status of being alone; it's a state of mind that has evolved with us for millions of years. It is deeply embedded in our biology, serving as a mechanism to ensure our survival. But in modern society, this survival mechanism can sometimes feel more like a curse. We explore why it's important to acknowledge this feeling, how to cope with it, and why even the most "popular" among us can feel profoundly isolated.
