Imagine a condition that makes a person irritable, depressed, and self-centered, and also increases their risk of dying early by over 25%. Imagine that in industrialized countries, over 30% of folks are afflicted with this condition. Your income doesn’t protect you. Nor does your education, your sex, or your ethnicity. Worse yet, the condition is considered to be contagious, damages heart muscle, causes premature death and can affect any ordinary person walking down the street. This condition exists, and it’s called “loneliness”. Also known as social isolation, loneliness is often stigmatized, trivialized, and flat-out ignored, but is fast emerging as a worldwide public health problem – oddly enough growing hand-in-hand with so-called “social” media. Turns out, there is a fascinating link between love, family, social connectedness and relationships, and a longer lifespan. This presentation by Ben will give a host of practical love tips to include in one’s life for a longer lifespan and better health. After all, owning an amazing body and a sharp mind can all be for naught if loneliness, sadness, inflammation, high blood pressure and accelerated aging are all occurring due to a lack of friendships, social relationships, community, charity and love – and in this presentation, Ben will teach exactly why to and how to include these important components into a body, mind and spirit routine.
