Thank you Kimberlee...you have provided the cure for lonliness

Study: Loneliness is bad for your health

CHICAGO, Aug. 17 (UPI) -- Social isolation and physical aging make for a toxic cocktail, resulting in more stress hormones flowing through the body, U.S. researchers say.

University of Chicago psychologists Louise Hawkley and John Cacioppo say the toll of loneliness may be mild and unremarkable in early life, but may accumulate with time. The more years one lives, the more stressful situations one will experience -- such as new jobs, marriage and divorce, parenting, financial worries or illness.

In a study of college-age individuals and adults ages 50 to 68, the researchers found that, even when faced with similar challenges, the lonelier people appeared more helpless and threatened. They were also less apt to actively seek help when stressed.

Hawkley and Cacioppo took urine samples from both the lonely and the more contented volunteers, and found that the lonely ones had more of the hormone epinephrine -- one of the body's "fight or flight" chemicals -- flowing thought their bodies.

The study, published in the Current Directions in Psychological Science, found people who were lonely not only experienced a mental impact, but a biological one as well -- lonely people go through life in a heightened state of arousal.

group hug is a website that publishes anonymous confessions. Readers of the site are encouraged to "confess" using a simple form. All confessions go through a lengthy public screening process before appearing on the main page. The site was launched in October 2003 by Gabriel Jeffrey and it remains a "spare-time project" of Jeffrey and Adam Bregenzer.

As of 2005, the site is quite popular, appealing to both voyeuristic and exhibitionist tendencies, having more than 400,000 confessions. A book, Stoned, Naked and Looking in My Neighbor's Window (ISBN 1-932112-36-7 published by Justin, Charles & Company), compiles confessions from the site. There is also a UK-specific edition of the book (ISBN 0-7432-6826-1 published by Simon & Schuster UK).

group hug created a podcast, called Audiocrush, "a Podcast about confessions, music, and everything else." group hug is predated by the Apology Project and digitally by Not Proud. Not Proud was started three years earlier in 2000.

it's often NOT easy to be a "newbie"

so, welcome SandyIV.

it's truly time for all of us, to step into the "light",
and, learn how it is to "weave" our "energies"
through our hearts,
so, that our truth,
can reflect as our "light",
and, everyone, and, everything
that we come into contact with
can shine a whole lot brighter...

be a piece of peace

Brightest Blessings,

we were all "newbies" once... and we look forward to what each share to the feast of abundance we are enjoying... Pot luck, my dear, kick back and make yourself comfortable...

We all understand that it is no "coincidence" that you are here... no one wanders in here by mistake...I hope you feel welcome and appreciated !

Boy, you can say that again. It is quite hilarious how our answers are delivered through others. Last night was just another example of this. We were grabbing a cab and I made mention something about a book and the cabbie quickly started a conversation that led him to give me a lead....another connect the dot type thing. Sometimes it feels like the world is my personal secretary.

Love,
Kimberlee
