Episode 3002: Cylon George explores how meaning, purpose, and emotional well-being grow through human connection, drawing on nature, neuroscience, and everyday life.

Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.spirituallivingforbusypeople.com/how-to-feel-more-connected-to-others Quotes to ponder: “People generally overestimate how distinct their lives are, so the commonalities seemed to them like a series of miracles.” “It’s hard to find meaning in what we do if at some level it doesn’t help someone else or make someone happier.” “We may be free, healthy, and well fed, but our lives feel more meaningless than ever. Call it the paradox of progress.” Episode references: David Brooks: https://www.theatlantic.com/author/david-brooks/ Braiding Sweetgrass: https://milkweed.org/book/braiding-sweetgrass Learn more about your ad choices.
