Isolation

Are you isolating today? It’s a common coping mechanism. It’s ok to take some alone time, but if it has been a while time since you socialized with anyone, it can be worth the effort to push through discomfort and initiate contact. Humans are social creatures, and our evolution into becoming increasingly isolated is fairly recent as far as our biology is concerned. Our nervous systems still soothe together, heal together, and co-regulate together.
