Why Social Wellness is Important? The Power of Social Interaction

health No Comments »

Hey everyone! In this video, we’re going to talk about why social wellness is important and the power of social interactions.

If you don’t know me, I’m Dr Patrick Kingsep and I am a Clinical Psychologist who works in private practice and helps individuals, families and couples improve their emotional well-being.

Social health includes a person’s ability to interact in positive ways with other people. It is also about creating and maintaining healthy, meaningful relationships that serve different purposes in life.

Social health means you connect with others in your community, you can communicate with others, you understand and respect social norms, and you set boundaries for yourself that allows you to maintain your own mental health while remaining connected to others.

Without connections with people, creating social well being, we cannot call ourselves genuinely healthy.

Social health is not just about having lots of friends or going out a lot.

Your ability to interact with a whole range of people and adapt to the different expectations of these different relationships is part of your social health.

Social health includes communicating, empathizing with others, personal boundaries, trust and self-confidence.

Your emotional resilience depends on your social wellness. Your relationships support and bolster you during hard times and help you enjoy the good times even more.

Those with close relationships even produce more antibodies to help your immune system fight diseases, than those who spend time alone.

Those with deep and healthy social connections are more likely also to have healthy eating and exercise habits, as well.

These with strong, healthy relationships are more likely to manage stress better, and they can communicate their emotions in ways that are helpful and not harmful.

When you are surrounded by people with robust emotional and mental health, this gives you strong and powerful people to model for how to manage your emotions and communicate your needs to others.

When you feel confident in your own self-efficacy, you are more likely to choose rewarding career paths, take better care of yourself, and find meaning in life.

If you want to become more socially well, there are some ways you can increase your social network:

1. Smile and introduce yourself.

2. Treat every person you meet as if they could be your next friend.

3. Give of yourself.

4. Join a group.

5. Be a better listener.

How's your social health? Let's test it. | Dr. Chelsea Shields | TEDxSaltLakeCity

health No Comments »

We’ve all heard of physical and mental health, but another important aspect to our overall health and wellbeing is social health. In fact, recently in the United States, the surgeon general revealed that social isolation and loneliness just topped obesity to claim second place as one of the top three killers in America.

Humans are highly social creatures, but that doesn’t always mean that our social interactions are healthy. In this informative talk, Dr. Chelsea Shields, explains how our emotions can easily be high-jacked and then offers guidance on how to evaluate and level up our social health.

This presentation was filmed during the COVID-19 pandemic, with only a limited live audience of cast and crew members. While applause has been added to the beginning and end of the video, all other aspects have intentionally remained as filmed to honor the struggle and loss experienced globally during 2020.

Wardrobe furnished by Tommaso Cardullo. Dr. Chelsea Shields is a bio-social anthropologist, placebo studies expert, and runs a local consulting business.

In her academic work, Dr. Shields focuses on the evolution and elicitation of the placebo effect outside medical contexts. She coined the concept of social susceptibility to talk about how and why our human bodies have evolved to react, adjust, and adapt to specific social rituals, relationships and communities. Her work also investigates the evolutionary mismatch of modern human hyper-sociality and the health implications of a global, digital, 24/7 social network.

In her professional work, Shields runs a research and strategy business that specializes in qualitative, quantitative, and ethnographic research as well as creative ideation, branding, and user-experience design.

Dr. Shields is also a TED Fellow, 3x TED speaker, and teaches speaker training that is focused on the 90% of communication we never talk about: the non-verbals! This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx

Social Well Being – Importance Of Social Connections – Social Life – Social Interactions

health No Comments »

In this video I discuss the importance of social well being, social connections, social relationships and social interactions with other people. I also discuss social relationships and health, and how social media is bad, and good for you.

Transcript (partial with notes)

Social connections

If you talk to someone that has recently moved, started a new job, or retired, and ask them what they miss most about their past situation, one of the most common answers is that they miss the people that were in their life. What that actually means is that they miss the social connections or relationships they had with those people.

Social well being, social connections or social interactions with other individuals is crucial to mental health, which in turn is crucial to overall health. The lack of social connections has shown to increase stress hormones, weaken the immune system, and lessen cardiovascular functions. People who are lonely tend to consume more alcohol, exercise less, have less quality sleep, and fatigue easily.

Social relationships allow you to share your achievements, and have support when times are tough. Imagine achieving a long term goal you had, what is the first thing you want to do, tell someone, share your accomplishment with friends and family of course.

Or imagine if something terrible happened. Not having someone to lean on and talk to, can make that event linger, and make you feel even more isolated.

Giving support in relationships can be more beneficial than receiving support. When someone shares something positive in their life with you, it is a compliment.

They wanted you to be a part of their success, and they know that you have a sincere interest in their life. And when someone shares a tragedy in their life, you know they really trust you, and they are looking to you to help them through this difficult time.

Some social relationships can be bad. A person that is constantly negative and has a poor outlook can bring you down, causing you stress, and negatively affect your mood.

Someone that always talks about themselves, and makes all of your interactions about them, is not really a social connection. In that case you are just an audience member in their one person show on how wonderful their life is.

Poor marital or relationship quality can also weaken the immune system, and erode physical health. Dealing with the stress from a poor relationship can lead to over consuming food or alcohol, smoking, or taking medications to deal with the stress, which in turn can damage systems in the body.

Connections through social media can be beneficial, by allowing you to stay in touch with friends and family at distant locations, however, social media connections are not a good alternative for face to face in person contact.

And too much time spent on social media can lead to more isolation and a greater feeling of loneliness. It is a good practice to use social media in moderation.

To be healthy we need people in our lives, it doesn’t need to be 5000 facebook friends, and we don’t have to have everyone like us. Having strong social relationships with just a few people is fine.

A few people that we can share life’s good and bad moments with, a few people that we can connect with on a regular basis, with no stress, and no judgments, a few people who accept us for who we are.
