So, How Do I Start?
Helping others cannot only make us feel good about ourselves, it can also elevate our physical well-being. If we elevate our spirits, our health will also benefit. A recent study at Cornell University discovered that volunteering increases a person's energy, sense of mastery over life, and self-esteem. Other studies have shown that such positive feelings can actually strengthen the body's immune system. Positive emotions also release endorphins into the bloodstream. Researchers in Michigan who studied 2,700 people for almost 10 years discovered that men who regularly did volunteer work had death rates 2 1/2 times lower than men who didn't do volunteer work. Researchers at Harvard discovered that giving is such a powerful immune booster that it can be experienced just by watching someone else in the act of giving! What an easier way to feel good about yourself, raise your self-esteem, raise your spirits and boost your immune system? Order your set of "Hope Coins" today! |
