90 Days Of Wellness: Day 30 Volunteering your time is a powerful way to give back while enriching your own life. It helps build stronger communities, fosters empathy, and enhances your skills and experiences. Giving your time to causes you care about also boosts personal growth, increases happiness, and creates meaningful connections with others. Plus, volunteering has been shown to reduce stress and improve mental well-being. Every act of service not only makes a difference for others but also brings fulfillment and purpose to your own life.

The bonds found in friendships and other relationships are an important factor in health and wellness – even science says so. As people age, the risks of isolation increase.

For almost 20 years, I have helped nonprofits grow through best fundraising practices and strategies. After traveling the world ?? with my fundraising career, I learned through early motherhood, the value of giving to those closest to you is the best way to start making the world a better place. In my book ?? Giving is Selfish, I teach the transformative ? powers of care-giving, thanks-giving, and for-giving. I believe we are “hardwired to give” and that all the goodness you put into the world is never wasted and “boomerangs back” to you. When I studied at the Dr. Sears Wellness Institute to get my health coaching certificate, I deepened my understanding of health and wellness. Dr. Sears teaches a holistic approach to healthy living through Lifestyle, Exercise, Attitude, and Nutrition (L.E.A.N). An important component I identified with was a scientific term called the “Helpers High.” ? Did you know helping others is proven to lower your blood pressure, help you live longer, have stronger mental health and social connections? ? What if you could change the world today without being drained of your time and energy? ? What if every day you woke up grateful and ready to start the day with energy ? to give to both yourself and others? ? What if you could make a difference with the limited time ? and funds ?? that you have? In addition to my ? blog, ?? podcast, and ?? book, I work with clients on holistic health and wellness practices, routines, and accountability through Give and Live Well coaching services. If you are trying to figure out how to navigate your own personal health and wellness goals while also raising a family and trying to make a difference in the world, then book a discovery call ?? using the link on my page. I'm fully booked for June, but slots are open for July! What area of health do you need help with? Comment below ? . P.S. - You can read more about my health and wellness journey of discovery and framework in my book (link in comments). #giveandlivewell #youareaphilanthropist #healthandwellness

??Have you ever realized how #volunteering contributes to health and wellbeing? Alison Waterfield, Centrepoint-Basel active member and volunteer, shares her reflection and conclusion: The positive impacts of volunteering can not be underestimated. ??Volunteering offers a range of health ??benefits that can positively impact mental, emotional and physical #wellbeing. Engaging in such work not only enriches the lives of others. ??Multiple factors and mechanisms contribute to improved mental and emotional wellbeing in individuals who #volunteer: ??Stress relief A reduction in #stress, anxiety and depression as well as an improvement in mood can all come about by the act of helping others. It can nurture a positive outlook on life and being part of a community and feeling socially connected can combat loneliness and isolation. ??Sense of accomplishment & self-confidence By mastering new skills, receiving positive feedback from #community members and fellow #volunteers, individuals can feel a sense of accomplishment which can help boost their self-esteem and self-confidence. For people who may have been out of work for some time, experienced a loss or personal setback, volunteering can be a way to help build themselves back up again and to bring happiness back to their lives with the support of a community. Many individuals also find a sense of purpose, fulfilment and meaning in life through helping others. ??Emotional resilience Regular engagement in volunteer activities can build emotional #resilience by being exposed to diverse situations and challenges, helping individuals to develop coping strategies and emotional strength that can be beneficial in navigating personal life challenges. ??Personal growth and development While not a direct health benefit, volunteering can provide career advantages through skill development, personal growth, networking and gaining experience in various fields of work. This can lead to improved job satisfaction, work-life balance and even help in getting a new job. ??Social connection Depending on the type of volunteer work engaged in, you will certainly connect with other people, meet new colleagues and friends. It can be very rewarding to be part of the community. ??Volunteering acts on multiple levels to enhance an individual’s wellbeing, offering a unique blend of social, psychological and physical benefits that can mitigate symptoms of mental health conditions, improve mood and contribute to overall mental resilience. Engaging in such activities can be an important component of a holistic approach to overall health and wellbeing.
