MBSL: Being Alone but not Lonely

We all have times when we find ourselves without anyone else around, and it is our perception that determines if at those times we feel grateful and fulfilled, or lonely.  Some time alone can provide a wonderful opportunity for self-reflection and deepening self-insight, but it can be uncomfortable if that silence and quiet is perceived as loneliness or as rejection by others.  How can we cultivate an appreciation for our time alone, and change the story we tell ourselves, seeing it instead as a time for our own personal growth and exploration?  This week we turn to frequent guest, holistic life coach Markus Kasunich, for his perspective on embracing our alone time.
