A Radically-Simple Approach to Getting Well | Julia Hotz
About this episode
Did you know doctors are now prescribing activities like art classes, nature walks, and community gardening to treat loneliness, lack of purpose, and other modern ills? In this fascinating episode, Julia Hotz discusses the power of "social prescribing" outlined in her book The Connection Cure: The Prescriptive Power of Movement, Nature, Art, Service, and Belonging.
Learn how reconnecting with these ancient wellsprings of human health and happiness can provide an antidote to the soul-draining effects of our frenetic, disconnected lives. If you've been yearning for more meaning, joy, and community, this conversation may be just what the doctor ordered.
