Are you bored, unmotivated, and want something to do that will invigorate you and give you purpose? Try volunteering.
Volunteering provides many benefits to both mental and physical health. Volunteering helps counteract the effects of stress, anger, and anxiety. The social contact aspect of helping and working with others can profoundly affect your overall psychological well-being. Nothing relieves stress better than a meaningful connection with another person. Working with pets and other animals has also improved mood and reduced stress and anxiety.
Volunteering makes you happy, increases self-confidence, provides a sense of purpose, helps you stay physically healthy, and brings fun and fulfillment. Learn how to find the right volunteer opportunity for you. Join us on September 26 at 10:30 at the “Timely Tuesday Topics” and enjoy a discussion on volunteer opportunities in St. Petersburg.
