Episode 66 - Essential 8 Series (Part 7)

Today we’re taking a deep dive into how community helps you heal & I would go as far as to say how and why community is a non-negotiable for healing, how it’s the cornerstone to it. Humans are hardwired for connection. You were never meant to carry or navigate as much as you have on your own. Hit play to learn more!

• IG post I referenced
• 3 research studies referenced:
  • The Role of Social Support in Coping with Psychological Trauma
  • Developing trauma resilient communities through community capacity-building
  • How does social support enhance resilience in the trauma-exposed individual?

Here's the 3 takeaways:

1. Human are hardwired for connection, it is a biological imperative. Take a moment to reflect on the spaces, places, and people you feel an authentic connection with. Consider doing the, “Who’s at your table?” exercise.
2. The modern world is moving in away from real-time, in-person connection, be intentional about keeping it in your life. Consider putting your phone away more often and look for ways big and small to create human connection in your daily life.
3. Social support enhances our resilience to trauma. Community-based spaces to heal, connect, play, and have shared experiences are essential.
