Shownotes Transcript

Episode 47 of our Psych Up Podcast series explores the importance of community in the practice of groundedness. Our special guest, Grant Brecht, Head of Clinical and Consulting Services here at Veretis emphasises how community provides a sense of support and connectedness along with purpose and meaning. Individuals are more likely to experience higher levels of anxiety and depressive disorders when they don't engage with others or if they don't have activities to look forward to on a daily basis. Grant highlights the point of not becoming a victim of loneliness.
