Thirty percent of people in the US and 45% in the UK say they're lonely, Like so many current health problems, loneliness, while harmful and terrible to experience, is also "normal". Paradoxically, if you're lonely, you can be certain of one thing: you're definitely not the only one! Loneliness is one of the hardest parts of being human. And handling loneliness is also one of the difficult life lessons they don't teach us about in school.

In simple, practical steps, this encouraging book helps readers build emotional awareness, and gain the skills and understanding to enhance their connection with others. Here's a tip, and you don't even have to read the book to get it. The most important thing you can do when you feel lonely, is remember that one of every two or three people you see on the street is lonely, too. Step out of your comfort zone to ease someone else's pain. Making the effort to help other people connect with YOU will help you BOTH.
