“The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others”-Mahathma Gandhi

Lockdown moments are the most difficult times where we have limited interactions with others.
These moments pave way for many families in the community to face difficult times which disturbs their mental health. To overcome this difficult time and keep your mental health safe and sound one needs to be appreciated, supported and uplifted for the work they do and the efforts they take.

As a Community Group we receive lot of request to support people in the community in this Pandemic times. Here we would like to encourage, motivate and inspire the community to give credit to yourself and the community around. To keep your mind, body and soul happy and healthy sharing few tips to try and follow.

Keep your mind open to think for others. It could be family members, friends, neighbours and the community you live around. Identify their needs and encourage them to get involved. It could be motivating them to do a simple cooking, a painting, learn a dance, encouraging them to walk, and it could be anything. Don’t stop just by motivating but start appreciating the efforts they have taken. Uplift them with your kind and thoughtful words to do more with your valid ideas and suggestions. Finally, inspire them to keep continuing the chain, requesting to pass on the same to others around them. When the chain keeps continuing the roots become stronger to hold for the branches to grow and spread the goodness to others. This is the best way to find yourself in the service of others. At the end of the day, give a pat to yourself and say “Yey, I did something good today and I feel great” and start thinking for others again. This is a simple step that you can take as a #Volunteer to support others and find the best in you.

Don’t wait for others to build your community it starts from you and be proud of yourself in gaining that momentum to find the best in you.

Become a Volunteer and taste the Power of Volunteering!
