Tuesday - 3 days to go! #WorldMentalHealthDay
Giving to others not only makes someone else feel better, but it is also great for our own mental health. Research shows that generosity boosts mood, reduces stress and helps to build a sense of purpose.
What does the science say?
Studies show that regions of the brain, linked to reward and pleasure, are activated when we engage in acts of kindness, releasing dopamine and oxytocin (happy hormones). So, get going, get giving and enjoy a feeling of warmth and connection today.
