Many people view solitude as a negative experience. But often this comes from confusing solitude with loneliness.

Done right, solitude provides nearly unlimited opportunities for reflection and personal growth.

In this episode, I discuss the benefits of life-changing benefits of solitude, why we avoid being alone, and ways you can begin practicing solitude immediately.

Show Highlights Include:

  • Why solitude got a bad reputation and how it can improve your life immediately (1:37)
  • Scientific evidence that solitude makes you more creative (7:04)
  • How daydreaming makes your life better and how solitude makes you better at it (7:51)
  • Why having alone time reduces depression (8:33)
  • The truth about why we seek “noise” and avoid being along with our thoughts (10:56)
