The Cure for Loneliness

Todd Perelmuter
About this episode

Human beings need social connection in order to live full, happy, safe and protected lives. It's hardwired into our DNA. No human was brought into this world without the love and nurturing of someone else. But too often in our modern society, we find there is no tribe, no village, and no community to offer that safety and comfort.

In today's podcast I talk about the two types of actions we have to take to deal with loneliness: internal action and external action. I share how we can accept, embrace and love our alone time. And I discuss how we can start building those loving relationships we all deserve.

Please enjoy other episodes where I share meditation techniques, tips and spiritual lessons from around the world for peaceful and stress-free living. Remember to subscribe to stay up-to-date.
