"SOLITUDE IS FUNDAMENTAL TO BETTER HEALTH. BEING ALONE IS A CHOICE, AN ACTIVE ACTION"
Spending time alone can have profound positive effects on your life and wellbeing. It allows us to see what's missing from our life and helps identify changes that need to be made. Alone time away from responsibilities, phones and the external world allows us to keep connected to our own internal world, our true sense of self. This allows for reflection on our inner most thoughts and helps enhance self-awareness, similar to how Buddhists have practiced mindfulness for centuries. Solitude provides peace and quiet to think deep, analyse abilities, unlock curiosity and gain better self understanding and wellbeing during this lifetime.
