Social Connections

It is important to cultivate your tribe and maintain relationships with people who know you well.

Social connections and relationships affect our physical, mental and emotional health. Research shows that the single most important predictor of human happiness and long life is having strong social connections.

Health-related measures like blood pressure and heart rate improve even with short positive social interactions.
