Understanding Isolation

This week's message brought us back to our discussion on mental health and broached the topic of isolation. Consider these questions as they apply to your life.



1. When you think of the word isolation, what comes to mind?

2. Are meaningful connections important to you? Why or why not?

3. During COVID lockdown, did you feel isolated? Did you find news ways to be connected to folks? If yes, what were they? Are you still using those techniques?

4. Discuss the quote from Sherry Turkle, “ Digital connections and the sociable robot may offer the illusion of companionship without the demands of friendship.” Is this true for you and how you use technology in your relationships?
