Pets aren’t just our furry family members – they’re powerful allies for our mental health! On ‘Mental Breakthroughs’ host Patricia Wu and guest Dr. Jude Black discuss how pets aren’t just our furry family members – they’re powerful allies for our mental health.
Stress Busters
Pets lower our levels of cortisol, the stress hormone, helping us feel calmer and more relaxed.
Mood Boosters
Watching funny pet videos or spending time with our own furry friends makes us smile and feel happier.
Sense of Purpose
Pets give us a reason to get up in the morning, stick to a routine, and feel like we’re making a difference in another being’s life.
