They're not just magical moments of groovy connection that we know each other now.
It's like,
In our brains, we're actually switching from one narrow attention system to a relational attention system.
And those two attention systems are between our ears all the time.
And our challenge is to balance them and turn them on when they're appropriate and create moments of meaningful connection through activating our relational attention.
And the argument that I make in the book is that it's not magic.
It can be done if you learn how to use like awakening cues, if you learn how to manage the balance of how your attention functions and sense when you're in one mode and sense when you're in another mode and create spaces that activate this broader, warmer, healthier relational attention.
It looks incredibly common, A, right?
It's very easy.
It's a modern experience, I think, to feel like you're just a cog in a machine, to feel like you're not mattering.
And we've come to a, I don't know, I find it to be a little almost near dystopian extent, normalized, that kind of thing, where we talk about people and treat people as if they're simply computational beings and simply machines.
But what it looks like is isolation.
What it looks like is loneliness.
What it looks like is anxiety and depression, I think, in the end.
When we are social animals, we are animals made of meaning, without meaningful connection, without mattering, to use the language, without mattering, we're hollowed out.
It is a core need of us to be in community, in and growing.
And the litmus test that I use informally is like two questions.
Who do you feel most alive with?
Where do you feel most alive?
And what are you growing with someone?
