Day 10: The Joy of Giving
Today’s Prompt

Why Are We Doing This?

Research shows generosity can:
- Lower stress hormones
- Improve mood
- Support cardiovascular health
How to Practice Giving Today
- Offer encouragement.
- Help briefly.
- Express appreciation.
Pause after giving.
Notice warmth or ease.
