9: 11 Ways to Develop a Strong Community for Better Health

There's an underappreciated and often overlooked aspect of maintaining optimal health that many of us miss in our busy, hustle-bustle lives. It's not a magic pill or an exotic superfood. It's something much more primal and deeply rooted in our evolutionary history – community.

 

The sense of belonging to a community and tribalism in achieving health transcends just the physical. Have you ever thought about how our modern emphasis on individuality could be contributing to the high rates of isolation, anxiety, and mental health problems that we see today? Could community be the path to achieving optimal health? 

 

These are questions we answer in this episode of the Primal Shift podcast, where host Michael Kummer explores why it's essential to be part of a community, and why a sense of belonging is vital for our mental health and physical health. He shares 11 useful tips and tricks to help you transition into or find new communities, or perhaps even create your own.
