Consider this a gift to yourself, you deserve it.
Research shows that those who spend just 15 minutes a day engaging in any type of healthy activity that generates a feeling of joy increases oxytocin, dopamine, and serotonin (the happy hormones) in the brain, which allows us to feel better. And, since sources of joy differ person to person, for example, gardening may be pleasurable for one, and a chore for another. Discover which activities that bring you joy, calm and reduce stress and burnout. JumpStart Self-care helps you build your internal resources to have more balance and control from the constant challenges of life. Get started today!
