Try to reconnect with the magic and beauty of life again . Although feeling alone can suck , it ’ s an experience that can actually be harnessed to further your spiritual growth . Some of the wisest and most illuminated souls in history were those who experienced extended periods of solitude . Furthermore , when you connect with your spirit guides , ancestors , and archetypal mentors , the feeling of loneliness can often significantly subside . You may also like to connect with your soul on a daily basis through meditation , ritual , art , music , prayer , nature immersion , or other sacred practices that call to you .

12 . Journal about how you feel
Writing down your thoughts and feelings is a wonderful way to create some inner clarity . When we feel alone , it ’ s common to have an excess of energy because we don ’ t have many people to talk to . Try to expel some of that energy through writing . You don ’ t need to be a talented writer or even good at spelling to journal . Simply express all that you feel in an unfiltered way . Journalling can be a great catharsis , particularly when you feel intense loneliness or despair .
13 . Work with your inner child
If you experience chronic loneliness ( that lasts for years ), it ’ s likely you have undergone significant trauma as a child . You can read our article on inner child work to get started . But when it comes to trauma , it ’ s best to find a counsellor or therapist to help work through your pain . Please consider this option seriously as it can have an extremely good and transformational impact on your life . I recommend finding a therapist who specialises in trauma . One great approach is something called somatic experiencing . So if you need a place to start , look up some somatic experiencing practitioners in your area .
