December health tip: share your gifts Volunteering your time and talents is a great way to help the people and organizations in your community. But did you know that volunteering may help you, too? Giving your time to others may help you become healthier and happier. Here s how: Practical knowledge. Everyone can benefit from learning new things. Volunteering may be an ideal way to develop new job skills or keep skills sharp. Social bonds. The social connections built through volunteer activities may strengthen ties to the community and create a larger social network. Mental and emotional health. Helping others feels good and gives volunteers a sense of purpose, which may in turn have a positive effect on mental and physical health. Health and longevity. Research indicates that adults who volunteer are more likely to live longer, enjoy better physical health and have lower rates of depression later in life. 1 Fresh viewpoint. Taking a step back from your own day-to-day routine to focus on others can be eye-opening, in a good way. Volunteering can help you put everything into perspective. Spread good cheer with a treat that s perfect for sharing. Try this recipe for White Chocolate-Cherry Bark.
