Per our post for world mental health day, take a look at this data. Mental health is not distinct from the body. Hypervigilant threat appraisal systems (aka toxic stress) subsequently induces systems wide bodily responses and contributes to many of the other chronic health challenges listed. It also drives maladaptive coping such as poor food choices, setting up negative pattern generators. In mind-body medicine, modern science now affirms the practices from the wisdom traditions of the world as helping to mitigate the potentially deleterious effects of unsupported trauma and toxic stress.

In 2018, an academic publication titled "Happy to help? A systematic review and meta-analysis of the effects of performing acts of kindness on the well-being of the actor" was published. (Curry et al. in the Journal of Experimental Social Psychology, DOI: 10.1016/j.jesp.2018.02.014)

This paper examined 27 experimental studies with a total number of individuals studied at 4045. The authors looked to see if there were effects of helping on the happiness of the helper. There was a statistically significant, low to medium overall effect of kindness on the giver’s well-being. In altruistic behavior, naturally we aim to support others through embodied compassion, and true to the yogic teachings, this research demonstrates bidirectional effects.

Offer a compliment. Hold a door. Make a donation. Bring a loved one flowers. Plant something. Feed the birds. Be kind in traffic… Be creative and come up with simple meaningful acts of kindness today. And notice your own bodily response in doing so.
