How do we heal ourselves when we are lonely. People can be alone and not feel lonely. More people are dealing with loneliness than ever before.
Being alone vs being lonely:
You can be surrounded with friends or family and still feel loneliness. Loneliness is more about the amount of time you spend with people you love or like but not spending a lot of time with them. Truth is we need to be around people, we need to share our lives with others. When we are around people is builds our healthy life.
Letting go of loneliness:
Reconnect with yourself
You can do this by either doing a breathing exercise or meditation. This will relax your mind from spinning around with things and help you reconnect to who you actually are.
Begin loving who you really are:
Do you love the person you are? If you shook you head no then you need to look deep down into your soul and find out why. Then we need to fix the negatives to become positive and live a happy life. A good exercise for this is journal writing, write down what you do not like and find ways to fix it so your happy.
Being alone vs being around people:
Sometimes when we are alone we think of others and wish they wee there to keep us company. Sometimes when your out with friends you may wish you stayed home for some reason.
What steps can we take to have more or less time around others?

How to do reconnect with yourself ? I find being outside connects me to myself but also to nature at the same time. Sometimes I sit in a dark room and do some breathing exercises and then allow myself to just sit for a while and allow thoughts to come and go.

your welcome- 🥰
@pamharley003 I'm a little confused. I don't understand how breathing and meditating could help me reconnect with who I am or be less lonely. I would understand that I am made of flesh, but what else?
How do you know if you like yourself or not? What does loving yourself look like?
I still don't understand how I'm supposed to tell if I'm lonely because I don't have enough contact or if I'm lonely because I hate myself.
