Welcome to our Summer Series: Being Real in an Artificial World.
This week we delve into the impact of social media and digital communication on friendships and touch on how to foster genuine connections in a world of superficial interactions.
Technology can be both a bridge and a barrier to real interactions, how can we best use the tools at hand to facilitate healthy and meaningful connections?
Resources mentioned in this episode:
Research showing impact of loneliness on DNA:
Cacioppo's findings also show that prolonged loneliness can be as harmful to your health as smoking or obesity… for our primitive ancestors, survival depended not on greater brawn but on greater commitments to and from one another. Serving as a prompt to repair frayed social bonds, the pain of loneliness engendered a fear response so powerfully disruptive that even now, millions of years later, a persistent sense of rejection or isolation can impair DNA transcription in our immune cells.
