| Zusammenfassung: | "We are wired for meaningful social connection-and live happier and healthier lives with enough of it. But that doesn't necessarily mean that connection comes easily to us, especially in the modern world where we're increasingly busy, distracted, and divided. The truth is that connection can be downright hard. This helps explain why millions of people around the world are lonely-or simply want more from their social lives. In this book, we explain exactly why social connection can be so hard. We introduce several key barriers to social connection, and present evidence-based strategies for overcoming them. Some of these barriers are clearly a function of modern life-such as being distracted by our devices, feeling overworked, and living far away from loved ones. Other barriers are more timeless, such as simply not knowing how to connect, misunderstanding the thoughts and feelings of others, undervaluing moments of solitude, and avoiding the sort of vulnerability that creates deep bonds. Throughout the book, we offer actionable, research-based strategies for overcoming the barriers and living a happier, more connected life."-- |
