The warm feeling of giving a gift not only makes you feel good but also brings benefits to your mental and physical health.
A 2006 study showed that when people thought to donate money to charity, pleasure - related regions of the brain were activated.
Giving food, toys, clothing, or even spending your time with less fortunate ones can extend your life span.
A 2013 study by Carnegie Mellon University in New York witnessed this by analyzing the effects of volunteerism.
Researchers found that adults aged 50 and older who had performed volunteer work regularly had lower blood pressure compared with others.
Enjoy the holidays of the year by giving warm and gift gifts and by doing good to your health in general.
