WE ARE A HIVEMIND! "Collective neuroscience, as some practitioners call it, is a rapidly growing field of research. An early, consistent finding is that when people converse or share an experience, their brain waves synchronize." https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/brain-waves-synchronize-when-people-interact/

Read this last summer. Great read, especially in the context of the loneliness epidemic.

would it be fair to assume that loneliness emerges from not synchronizing enough?

Yes! Fair assumption. It’s so human to over complicate the source of what ails us. But the root of so much suffering is our disconnection from other humans and, more broadly, the natural world.

I think the disconnection can also be within ourselves too — for example, a persons mental experience may not be connected to their physical or emotional. and IMO, therapy/wholeness work is just trying to reconnect all these internal pieces so that you can connect with the outside world properly.

Like, some people are very rational beings, where they can barely feel emotions or physical sensations within. That disconnection is a breeding ground for unexplainable suffering. It’s networks of relationships all the way down
