Happy Thoughts - Coping With Loneliness – 6 Tips Towards Better Health

Today let's talk about loneliness - the feeling of being alone whether you're in a crowd or whether you're just by yourself.

It's quite common, especially now with the lockdown, then social isolation, and social distancing rules. It's easy to fall into it.

There's a difference between alone and being lonely. If you're alone you're fairly content with your own company. But if you're lonely you feel like something is missing. You may feel isolated in yourself.

You may feel sad, but you don't know why. Your life might be, to all appearances, going splendidly, but in your heart, you feel like something's missing and you don't know how to find it. We have a few suggestions that might be useful. Have a listen.

Stuff You Should Know
Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
