On the first part- "verbal/non-verbal social/emotional renewal?
That doesn't even sound healthy to think about, never mind, trying to do a project based on it.
To be quite honest, social renewal, via verbal/non-verbal means, is a good thing. Renewing oneself via public is always helpful to self-improvement agendas.
As for emotional renewal, via verbal/non-verbal means, is actually meaningless. Your emotional ties to things are constantly in the state of flux. You could like one thing one minute and dislike it in the next minute, for whatever reason.
The best place to get emotional renewal is while sleeping peacefully and continuous through the night(without getting up).
You will be emotionally charged for the next day, to tackle "social" events as they occur.
Then again, I could have just completely wasted a point of view, on something I really have no understanding of. I only went by the words and the usage of such words. What you understand those(verbal/non-verbal social/emotional renewal) means to you, I haven't a clue.
Just my thoughts. Yeah, I know, I think too much.
