As it’s today we thought we would remind everyone how important our pets are in maintaining and healing our mental health.
🐾 Pets provide companionship, even if a person cannot face talking to or socialising with people on a dark day, they can take comfort in having their pet by their side. Pets will ease the loneliness and isolation felt.
🐾Having a pet in your life helps to encourage exercise, talking a walk/jog/run with your dog or riding your horse helps release endorphins which in turn lift your mood.
🐾There is no love like the unconditional, non judgemental love of an animal ❤️
🐾 Scientific studies have proven that the sensory feedback of stroking, cuddling or petting your animal helps to reduce stress and anxiety and lower your heart rate.
🐾Being a caregiver to your pet means you need to maintain a routine of feeding and care to provide for their needs which in turn creates a feeling of greater self worth.
🐾Last but by no means least, playing with your pet gives both owners and pets joy which keeps you feeling younger 👍🏻
Give your wonderful pets an extra cuddle today as a Thankyou for all the good they are doing for your mental health!
