‘We are not made or created for social isolation’

Julie shares some great wisdom from her extensive expertise and experience about why we need to find connections and interactions with others even if we are physically away from them. She also explores in depth the challenges of being in close and continual contact with others but isolated from wider interaction.

Culturally as a nation in the UK we enjoy our freedom and don’t always respond well to any aspects of control but we are all in a different place now and certainty has been replaced by uncertainty, find out about the ways you can learn respond not react and maintain the social interaction you need, listen in and enjoy finding out more.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• It’s vital for us to be connected and getting the social interaction we need.
• It is not possible to have a positive and negative thought at the same time so we must connect ourselves to as many individuals as we can that are helpful, supportive and positive as this will positively impact on us and our mental well-being.
• It’s vital to be in a position to respond, not react, to any situation or challenge.
• Whoever we are in isolation with, will be those we will be in conflict with.
• If you are in isolation alone you will potentially experience conflict with yourself.
• There are 3 stages of a conflict,  in the first stage we able to focus on others, the problem and self, in the second stage on the problem and self and in the third stage we are only able to focus on self.
• It’s vital to prepare yourself understanding there will be conflict. Prepare yourself to think about how you will respond not react.
• Stress is over-applied pressure and it changes how your body reacts to any situation. Exercise aids your body in moving from an agitated state to a more relaxed state so it’s important to maintain regular exercise.
• How we communicate with other people creates a stimulus in them to either react to us or respond to us.
• How we think and feel affects how we behave, how we behave affects how others think and feel, it’s a cycle.
• It’s vital to create a positive cycle and this is within our control and influence
