The Helper’s High: How Practicing Kindness Benefits Your Health
Webinar Watch Party -Embody Workshop
Tuesday, July 21, 2-3:15pm, Holz Pavilion Theater
Discussion with Jen Graf, Senior Director of Cognitive Health and Dan Graf, Volunteer Manager
Acts of kindness engage the brain’s networks associated with positive emotion, connection, and reward, which helps to propel motivation and action toward all sorts of goals. In short, goodness begets goodness, and that virtuous cycle can change the way we relate to the entire world — and ourselves. In this free workshop, Tara Cousineau, PhD, shares what science tells us about the role of kindness in supporting mental health, and practical ways to bring more kindness, compassion, and human connection into your daily life. Dan will present options to employ kindness through our volunteer program here on campus after the webinar and answer questions regarding how to become a volunteer and opportunities available.
