Seeking solitude for mental health

12 Nov 2022 by Ted Escobedo   2 min read

Studies have shown that the ability to engage in solitude has been linked to increased happiness, better life satisfaction, and improved stress management. People who enjoy solitude also experience less depression. Another benefit is being by yourself, free from distractions, allows you to replenish your mind, focus, and think more clearly.

How to Seek Out Solitude for Your Life

Finding time alone in today’s world can be challenging. Here are a few ideas that might make it easier to get some alone time:

  • Unplug from your digital life: set aside some time each day in a space free from television, computing, and mobile phones.
  • Rise early in the morning: getting up out of bed before anyone else in your home provides a perfect time to, meditate, ponder creative thoughts or solve a problem.
  • Close your door: setting up a physical boundary between yourself and others is a great way to usher in solitude into your life.
