If you are also one of the people who are facing loneliness...Loss of a close person, separation from the life of parents, divorce from your partner, the feeling of emptiness after losing your job, the consequences that are still felt in humanity after the pandemic Covid 19, all of them are reason enough to feel isolated and completely alone. Mental health expert Minerva Guerrero in New York and Ashley Kirsner, founder of the virtual social network "Skip the small talk" agree when they say that loneliness is a normal feeling.
"Sometimes, we are alone with our thoughts, our fears, our struggles and our dreams," says Guerrero. "In moments of personal growth or challenge, we can feel lonely as we 'navigate' into unknown territories or are rediscovering new parts of ourselves. This can make it difficult for us to feel connected to other people,” she adds.
But if you still don't know how to overcome loneliness, here are some practical tips that you can implement to overcome this stage.
#1 Join a reading or dance group
#2 Follow activities that many people have (gym, a cause that brings different individuals together, etc.)
#3 Open a social media profile
#4 Call friends
#5 Go out for a dinner or weekend with family
#6 Get your body moving (swimming, walking, gym)
#7 Start a course dedicated to the spiritual aspect (yoga)
#8 Engage in an artistic activity (crocheting, sketching, painting on canvas, etc.)
#9 Talk to strangers, a neighbor or a random person you meet on the street
#10 Participate in voluntary activities of the neighborhood where you live (cleaning, food distribution at a social center)
