Elevated Health and Wellness

We had an epidemic of loneliness before the pandemic, but now it’s so much more!

A survey in 2018, showed that half of Americans felt alone, isolated or left out at least half of the time. Being lonely has the same impact on mortality as smoking 15 ci******es a day, making it more dangerous than obesity.

Although we are more interconnected through social media and other electronic ways, we are more isolated and feel more isolated than ever.

The more we feel a part of something, connected to others, less isolated, the less likely we are to die by su***de.

The unfortunate part is that it’s a double edged sword. You are lonely but that loneliness can make it harder to reach out to others because you feel so alone and might even feel that no one else would understand.

This year we are starting a book club. One that will create connection and because it’s for personal growth, the content will be uplifting and feel good. You will meet likeminded people that want to better themselves and will want the best for you too!

If you’re interested, read more about the group https://www.elevatedhealth.ca/bookclub or call 905-873-7330.

PS… did I mention it’s free? And will be a group of people that have shared interest so it will be easy to find something to talk about.
