A Life Less Lonely: What We Can All Do To Lead More Connected, Kinder Lives
Loneliness is an epidemic on the rise. It can affect anyone, irrespective of age, race or class. It has long been documented that older people suffer from social isolation, but teenagers do too, likewise new parents, those with disability, or illness, and anyone going through a significant life change. As more people work full-time, and we interact via social media than face to face, we need to stop and ask ourselves: what can we do to ensure all our futures are more connected and socially satisfying?
This book will help share stories of loneliness to increase our empathy and understanding of it, and to look for possible solutions. Using the research the Jo Cox Commission undertook following the MP’s senseless death in 2016, it offers a wealth of practical advice for everyone: how to spot the symptoms in yourself and others; how to ease them; how to seek help and, ultimately, how to understand this most fundamental of human emotions. Its aim is a simple and direct one: to provide us all with the tools we need to lead kinder, more connected lives.
