TPL Author Talks: "The Connection Cure" with Julia Hotz

Traditionally, when we get sick, health care professionals ask, “What’s the matter with you?” But around the world, teams of doctors, nurses, therapists, and social workers have started to flip the script, asking “What matters to you?”

Science shows that social prescribing is effective for treating symptoms of the modern world’s most common ailments—depression, ADHD, addiction, trauma, anxiety, chronic pain, dementia, diabetes, and loneliness. By integrating age-old medicines like art, nature, movement, and volunteer service into patient’s daily lives, social prescriptions are radically changing health and healthcare in more than thirty countries. Join author Julia Hotz as she discusses her book The Connection Cure: The Prescriptive Power of Movement, Nature, Art, Service, and Belonging. If we can change our environment, we can change our health. By reconnecting to what matters to us, we can all start to feel better. REGISTER HERE.
