Let's rebuild social connection and community.
"We are simply better together."
(U.S Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy, MD)
Solvita’s Coffee Domus is an organization that brings awareness to people's isolation and loneliness issues in our modern world.
Research shows that loneliness and isolation are associated with a greater risk of heart and brain diseases, an increase in diabetes and high blood pressure, a lower immune system, and increased mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, and suicidal ideas.
About 1 in 2 American adults reports experiencing loneliness at some point in life. Loneliness is not only an adult concern; to some degree, loneliness is reported among college students, high school students, and even younger kids. It is like an invisible epidemic of loneliness and isolation.
21st Surgeon General of the United States, Dr. Vivek Murthy, discusses loneliness as a public health concern. He blames disconnection and isolation as a root cause of loneliness. He says, “ Social connections are fundamental to our mental and physical health as food, water, and sleep.” His recipe for dealing with the massive loneliness problem in our society is building social connections.
