Social Health
Many of us are touch-starved. Even in romantic relationships, we can feel undernourished. We may be busy, on our phones, or just anxious and overwhelmed. Touch doesn’t have to be sexual — it can be as simple as holding hands, crossing your legs over someone else’s legs, or sharing a long hug with a friend in the middle of the day. The feeling of a counterweight of somebody else's body against yours is so powerful and brings us back into our bodies. In a world that continues to disconnect us, prioritizing touch feels like an act of resistance. If you’re feeling lonely today, ask for a hug, ask to hold a hand. We all deserve this.
Be your best, friends
