What Love is Not

from The Positive Mind Hosted by Niseema Dyan Diemer SEP LMT BCPP, Kevin O'Donoghue LMHC

Love is a feeling, not a Hallmark card or a box of chocolates. It is deeper and harder than that. Love is not unconditional, it needs the right conditions to be present, to be felt. This week Kevin and Niseema talk about love and how it is the antidote to loneliness. In looking at the questions of the UCLA Loneliness Scale it becomes clear that a lack of love, or the feeling of love, is at the core of why loneliness is so ubiquitous. In looking at love and the ways it shapes our experience of living, we hope to inspire a thoughtful process about the meaning and feeling of love for you. -------------------------------- For more information or support contact hosts Kevin O'Donoghue LMHC or Niseema Dyan Diemer SEP at: [email protected], or call 212-757-4488.
