Together. How to Create a Life with More Love, Friendship, and Healthy Attachments

People are social beings. This simple and obvious fact contains both the problem and the solution to the current relationship crisis around the world. We have evolved to build strong connections with others, to help each other, and to share life experiences. We are simply better together.

In his groundbreaking book, former U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy shows that loneliness is a public health problem. Loneliness is the cause of many epidemics: from alcoholism and drug addiction to depression and rising violence in society. Loneliness affects how children learn in school and our success at work.

Vivek Murthy offers 4 rules that will help establish strong connections with others:
1. Communicate with those you care about for at least 15 minutes every day.
2. Forget about multitasking. Give 100% of your attention to the other person during communication.
3. Learn not to feel bored when you are alone with yourself.
4. Help other people.
