Why It’s Important To Seek Healthy Connection When You’re Lonely

I’m joined by Dr. Vivek Murthy this week on The Doctor’s Farmacy to discuss how nurturing greater connection can benefit our health. Some of us might wonder how we break out of a rut of loneliness. Throughout our conversation, Dr. Murthy walks us through some really simple ways to get more connected—even from a distance.

Dr. Murthy served as the 19th Surgeon General of the United States between 2014-2017. As the Vice Admiral of the US Public Health Service Commissioned Corps, he commanded a uniformed service of 6,600 public health officers globally. During his tenure, Dr. Murthy launched the TurnTheTide campaign, catalyzing a movement among health professionals to address the nation’s opioid crisis. He also issued the first Surgeon General’s Report on Alcohol, Drugs, and Health, calling for expanded access to prevention and treatment and for recognizing addiction as a chronic illness, not a character flaw.

  1. The Spanish flu began when the end of WWI was announced because pneumonia is the result of being scared to death as one would expect in the first ever world war. It was also 10 years before antibiotics were invented. Pneumonia is pneumonia. You don’t “catch” it. You develop it from being scared to death. It’s biological to a living being. The death fright the media has produced today will also have the same result for people dumb enough to believe it. The illness begins when people no longer feel scared, so expect it about 2-3 weeks after the hostage situation ends that all governments have put their citizens in. If you cannot catch cancer, you cannot catch a cold or flu. Every disease is based on the fraudulent Germ Theory.
