That’s right, life expectancy.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

No, I’m not joking and no I haven’t got the secret for that either\u2026but anyway, often volunteering is recommended for older adults to keep them active and busy. People aged 65 and over are the age group most likely to have volunteered recently. As we get older many people naturally slow down however we should only gear up! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I can rest when I’m dead, I’m too busy living. <\/p>My beloved Great nan<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Volunteering can cover a wide spectrum, from volunteering locally <\/a>or abroad<\/a> through various organisations<\/a>. The nature of how you volunteer is irrelevant really, it’s the spirit of volunteering which really counts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Evolutionary Psychology<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Evolutionary psychology suggests that volunteering can have clear benefits which improve the psychological and physical well-being of the volunteer, not just the recipient.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Research by psychologist Stephanie Brown indicates volunteering helps manage stress, provides greater relationship satisfaction, reduces depression, and the biggie – increase your life expectancy. Taking into consideration medical history, age, social activity and other uninteresting factors. But volunteering appears to reduce the risk of death by 25% – which is a good enough reason for me! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stress-less volunteer more<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Don’t stress, it’s more likely to cause death! Stress plays a large factor in our bodies immune system and volunteering reduces that stress. The act of helping elicits feelings of usefulness. This produces the hormones oxytocin and progesterone which bring feelings of happiness and combats the symptoms of stress. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Working too hard!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Overworked volunteers can become stressed which doesn’t allow them to receive all the health benefits from volunteering. Your volunteering like anything should be managed and controlled. Volunteer management is very important and should be done to prevent burnout and increasing, instead of decreasing, stress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What to take from this<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Those who devote time, about 100 hours per year (just 10 days), are most likely to exhibit positive health outcomes from volunteering. The secret to a happy and healthy life is to remain mentally and physically active right up until the very end, especially after retirement, and volunteering is an excellent way to achieve that. That’s what my Great Nan did!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
