Amsterdam, March 23 2021 – Young people in particular have started to feel lonelier during the pandemic. The measures are needed. Nevertheless, young people require more social contact and don’t have a structured routine like they used to have. The pandemic pushes against our deep instincts for togetherness which can lead to a lack of meaning in our daily life’s. To encourage young people in this time of ‘social distancing’, the two creatives Nikki-Olyve (21) and Weia Tan (20) produced the video We’ll Heal. In this video, a young woman shows how you can regulate your lonely feelings through self-reflection and self love. ‘As we go through this time of isolation and chaos, it is important to connect with yourself. Everyone feels lonely sometimes and everyone experiences this in their own way. With We’ll Heal, we want people to know that being alone doesn’t have to mean that you are lonely,’ Nikki and Weia said. We’ll Heal can be seen on Vimeo
