On this World Mental Health Day, we want to give little reminder:

Loneliness is an emotion. It’s a sign that our bodies give us that we need to slow down and prioritise our social health.

Loneliness is not a mental health issue.

Studies show that when left unacknowledged and untended, loneliness can often develop into adverse mental health conditions like depression and anxiety. These can absolutely require interventions from a mental health professional.

But loneliness is not a mental health issue.

We fear that pathologising loneliness inadvertently feeds the stigma of loneliness.

At Humans: Connecting, we’re thrilled to play our part – along with many other people and organisations around the world – to help raise awareness of loneliness and in empowering people to prioritise their social health.

But loneliness is not a mental health issue.

Perhaps after we’ve highlighted the importance of World Mental Health Day, it’s time to advocate for a World Social Health Day?

We often see that the loneliness we humans experience can often be the unintended consequence of decisions we’ve taken in our past to keep us safe and small.

This is a great strategy, but there comes a point when that strategy no longer works.

Loneliness is a normal, expected part of life. We’re here to help you understand your loneliness – as unpleasant as that seems – so you can thrive through it whenever you feel it.

Our website – including our blog and podcast – is full of ideas to help you become a more connected human, because we’re meant to connect.

Imagine recognising when you’ve begun to experience loneliness and acting decisively to take back the power it has over you.

No more guessing something works. No more hoping it’ll go away.

Just the confidence that comes from having your Connection Plan and knowing how you can back to feeling connected.

We want that for you.

All the details about how you get your Connection Plan through our Connection Starter Course (including our downloadable 16-page brochure) are here: https://www.humansconnecting.org/connection-starter-course

Let’s get started.

Disconnection rarely shouts. It whispers.

You won’t always see the big red flags.

Sometimes disconnection looks like unread messages. Missed catch-ups. A team that delivers... but doesn’t really talk.

Creating Connected Workplaces, from Annecy Behavioral Science Lab and Humans:Connecting, helps you spot the early signals — and shift the culture before disconnection becomes disengagement.

We’re here to guide you through the quiet work that makes the loudest difference. But the first step is yours.

When you spend your life in places and spaces that want you to perform, being who you are can feel rebellious.

But being who you are – the authentic you – is the way to feel meaningfully connected.

We’re here for you.

We know you’re busy — and we know you care about your people.

But there are some issues in workplaces that don’t come with clear procedures to best respond.

Like most organizations, you feel the weight and impact of social disconnection. You want to act — but aren’t sure where to start, or what will actually make a difference.

Creating Connected Workplaces, delivered by Annecy Behavioral Science Lab and Humans:Connecting, gives you more than advice.

It gives you evidence, strategy, and the steady presence of two world-class experts, Dr. Hans Rocha IJzerman and Phil McAuliffe — walking right beside you.

You already care. We’ll help you take the next step with clarity.

“Lonely? But you’ve got a great life!”

That’s what Phil told himself. He had a loving family. A successful career. Friends. But he still felt invisible. Hollow. Like no one really saw him.

In truth, he wasn’t flawed. He was experiencing loneliness. Loneliness was the signal that something within him needed connection.

We invite you to read the story of how Phil – Humans:Connecting’s founder – finally stopped running from loneliness and started listening to what it was trying to teach him.
