Welcome to Feel Good February — a whole month of doing, thinking, being, and sharing good. According to a library press release, a 2019 study revealed that performing acts of kindness — even to strangers — boosts happiness and well-being. According to the Mental Health Foundation, helping others is actually beneficial for your own mental health and well-being. Altruism can reduce stress, improve your emotional state, and even benefit your physical health. Less stress means you feel good, and when you feel good, you do good, and when you do good, you feel happier. It’s time we all feel a little happier, and the library staff has put together several feel good activities and programs for all ages.
