"Harvard Expert's 5-3-1 Rule for Boosting Social Health and Reducing Loneliness"

Kasley Killam, author of "The Art and Science of Connection," developed the 5-3-1 rule to help manage social interactions and combat loneliness. The rule suggests spending time with five different people weekly, nurturing three close relationships, and aiming for one hour of meaningful social interaction daily. This guideline is intended to be flexible, helping individuals become more intentional about their social health, especially in a post-pandemic world where isolation is prevalent.
