Apart/Together - a podcast by 1st Unitarian Universalist Society of San Francisco

“Apart/Together” (May 31, 2020)

One of the side-effects of physical distancing and shelter-in-place is loneliness. According to Dr. Vivek Murthy, the former Surgeon General, research shows that more than 20% of the US adult population struggles with loneliness, and that was before COVID19. Social connection is baked into our nervous system. We need human interaction to survive. What causes loneliness and how can we help to alleviate it? Faith communities, I think, are a great place to begin the conversation.
