🛜“Ahora sabemos que la soledad es tan mala para la salud como fumar 15 🚬cigarrillos al día y que la depresión es un asesino silencioso.”@SimonGilbody de la @YorkUniversity , en su estudio publicado en #TheLancetHealthyLongevity Es importante destacar que la soledad puede ser experimentada de manera temporal o crónica, y puede tener un impacto significativo en el bienestar emocional y la #saludmental de las personas. Asociada con sentimientos de tristeza, ansiedad, baja autoestima y depresión. Abordar la soledad desde una perspectiva psicológica, implica trabajar en la mejora de las habilidades sociales, promover la construcción de relaciones significativas, identificar y desafiar pensamientos negativos sobre la soledad, y fomentar la conexión emocional y el apoyo mutuo entre individuos.👇🏻 fundaneed.es/proximamente-se… – at Salamanca, Spain

Damo impassioned generations of musicians, but most importantly, he was a kind and gentle soul. Here is when I was fortunate to meet him and to perform with him at a Jaki Liebezeit memorial concert in Cologne in 2018. Rest in peace, Damo. May your spirit keep on inspiring us.

Brilliant to work with you Eloise.

Merry Christmas to all those working in the NHS today Many staff in the NHS are grossly underpaid (even on Christmas day👇) but none more so than Junior Doctors who frequently graduate with >£100k debt RT to support them & ask government to pay them ALL fairly #PayRestoration

Age UK's latest statistics state that 2.3 million people wish they had someone to spend time with over Christmas @age_uk. Loneliness can affect anyone at anytime, however Age UK has found that many people find it the hardest day of the year.
