Did you know that…?
… Loneliness is a major health risk
Do a casual search of the Internet and you’ll find a plethora of articles saying that loneliness is a big health risk - equivalent to smoking 15 cigarettes per day. (This article on the AARP.org website is but one.)
And in the wake of COVID where we’re now more home-bound than ever and economic conditions where it’s becoming increasingly expensive to leave the house and not break the bank, there’s now a loneliness epidemic (This article in Al Jazeera talks more about it.)
The solution? Creativity and it’s ability to foster social connections.
Do you know someone who is lonely and could benefit from being part of a supportive, creative community? Forward this issue of dX exPress to them and when they subscribe, they can join dXing Space, our community where creatives support creatives.
