The Pro Love Movement: New Hope for Loneliness and Frayed Social Ties

    CHEYENNE, WY, May 23, 2023 /24-7PressRelease/ -- On June 1, Alchemy of Love is launching the Pro Love Movement. The organizers, Angela Amias LCSW and Daniel Boscaljon PhD, believe the Pro Love Movement is an important step to addressing the epidemic of isolation and disconnection that led the US Surgeon General to declare loneliness a public health crisis earlier this month.

The goal of the Pro Love Movement is to help people improve relationships in their lives as well as strengthen community bonds that have been strained by divisive religious and political differences in recent years.

"Love is a force for revolutionary social change, when we understand that change happens one relationship at a time," says Amias.

The timing of the movement intentionally corresponds with Pride Month and Juneteenth celebrations. "The Pro Love Movement begins with small steps toward more love that you can make in your ordinary, daily life," says Boscaljon. "Love is the ultimate renewable resource. When we pay attention, we can always find opportunities to express love. The more we express love, the more love we receive in return, which means the more love we have to give."

The Pro Love Movement was launched in response to the recent trend of anti-trans legislation in multiple states as well as the growing epidemic of loneliness and declining mental health. Amias, a licensed therapist, recognizes this trend in her work. "Many people struggle to find meaningful connections in their lives," says Amias. "The Pro Love Movement provides a simple process that begins with learning how to be kinder and more caring toward ourselves. Then we can look for opportunities to show more love and care to those around us."

Boscaljon notes, "Our overarching goal in launching the Pro Love Movement is to give hope. Another way is possible. To get there, we only have to start taking small steps toward love."

Alchemy of Love was cofounded by Angela Amias, LCSW, and Daniel Boscaljon PhD with the mission to bring more love into the world, one relationship at a time. Alchemy of Love provides trauma-informed relationship programs and services to individuals and couples, as well as training programs for therapists and relationship coaches.
