      Absolutely Juju721! When the virus crisis hit, after a month into the global isolation I begun inviting close friends to enjoy each other’s company. We agreed that we did have a scare but refuse to fear all the time. Embraced with love on arrival/departure, ate/drank together, sometimes 20+ of us. No one infected, everyone balanced and happy. Over the “second wave”, however, my friends got the cold feet, our parties ceased “until vaccination”. Despite working from home, somehow all but me got infected and successfully healed.
      With physical social life gone, I press on disallowing myself to worry or “feel” lonely. Took up remote volunteer work, do gardening, place frequent calls to family/friends/acquaintances all over the world. Listening to how they feel, clowning to get them smile and immersing in the Kabbalah courses/zoom group meetings have helped me to keep fear, depression and – so far – the virus at bay. It seems indeed that loving focus on others can be the best preventive “medication”, too ;-).

      Hi Friends

      I can see how this is true (at least from my point of view) all you have to do is visit a family member that is by him/her self most of the time and watch how his/her demeanor changes as she gets a visit from family or church members etc.

      I understand what Tal is saying I am a health care professional. However it can be easier said than done. Not everyone has the opportunity to have a flourishing social life and good positive relationships with others either by their environment or their own personality traits. I think that subjects that she spoke about should be gingerly said it can sometimes cause more harm than good.

      I completely resonate.. I’m a loner.. which is weird because I am extreamly outgoing and love others, and love socializing, but still find myself alone ALOT and I can see and understand how loneliness and other factors play a big role in our health.

      Sure that there is a great connection with body-or fysical pain and lonelyness , getting divorced or being neglected …

      I believe that when I donate, the universe continues to send me gifts in order for me to continue donating. Spending on myself opens up a void that always asks to be filled by spending more on myself.
      I don’t understand how it works and I would love to understand and thus be aware of the need to increase my help to others, without fear of missing my needs.
