We Are Still Hunter—Gatherers
In this second episode of the Emotionally Connected Bookclub, Bill Adair digs into some of the misconceptions that people tend to hold about the rise in anxiety among young people.
Bill frames the conversation using the idea that our brains are still keyed to the need for the type of connectedness experienced by our Hunter/Gatherer ancestors.
Finally, we walk into a typical classroom and look around using the lens of the Hunter/Gatherer frame, asking how we can intentionally create opportunities for more emotional connections.
