Issue 44 – Personal Space
Personal space goes beyond that chalk circle around us. Our homes are paragons of personal space, for example. In Issue 44: Personal Space, we look at the technology being developed to protect that space, studies that explore the curious custom of naming our homes, as well as the similarities between being a leader at home versus at the work place.
Our homes are a private space that serve as a sanctuary from the public world outside it. Pushing this concept a little further, we explore how that private space affects our quality of life through the lens of a local study on the quality of life in Gozo.
Maintaining our personal space enables us to have a safe space to reflect and explore our thoughts and feelings. But, we can only really fully ‘let go’ in space when we feel accepted and welcome just the way we are.
