After viewing the video, kindly answer the Following discussion questions
Here are the questions for you to answer:
Jane Anderson talks about the Power of Touch and how, as humans, we need touch on a daily basis for our survival, our health and our development.
1) Given our current situation with "social distancing" and what appears to still be a "touch less" society, how do you think this affects our health and our emotional state?
2) Simple things like a hand shake or pat on the back are not part of our daily activities at this time. These used to be social norms in the past and part of many cultures. As a result, how do you think that our communities and society as a whole are affected by our current state of social distancing, that requires us to curtail (stop) these daily elements of touch?
3) Is there something that we can do to compensate (substitute) for the loss of everyday touch in our world as it stands today?
