In this conversation, Monika Jiang, a German-Chinese community builder, writer and facilitator, explores the profound distinction between loneliness and "oneliness" - a historical term predating our modern understanding of isolation. Through her work building communities and facilitating gatherings, Monika illuminates how our current societal structures have led to increased disconnection, despite being more technically "connected" than ever before.
The discussion delves into how modern life, particularly in Western cultures, has created an environment where authentic connection has become increasingly rare. Monika shares her journey of discovering how loneliness isn't merely a personal challenge but a societal issue that requires collective healing. She emphasizes that true connection often requires stepping away from the performative aspects of social media and professional life to embrace more vulnerable, authentic interactions.
Throughout the conversation, Monika explains her approach to community building and healing through structured gatherings that combine theoretical understanding with practical, embodied experiences. She highlights the importance of creating safe spaces where people can explore connection through various modalities, including movement, active listening, and conscious touch, while maintaining a balance between addressing deep topics and maintaining a sense of lightness and play
