How to Improve Your Health by Raising Your Hand

DESCRIPTION

General descriptionIf you ever find yourself being flat or stressed or depressed, something that might help is volunteering. As well as being good for the organisation or charity you volunteer for, research shows it can be good for you too, specifically your physical and mental health. Studies have shown that as well as helping people feel more socially connected and less stress, volunteering has been linked to physical health benefits including lower blood pressure. It's even been associated with longer lifespans. Your career can prosper too as volunteering has been shown to improve job prospects for students and helps them build important connections and networks. So next time the opportunity comes up, volunteer! You might be surprised at just who you're helping.CreatorJason KamDate created2014ContributorMarketing and CommunicationsPeople depictedJason KamLanguageEnglishIs or was included inKnow More in 60 Seconds Video Series
