Eco-Volunteering

HANDS-ON WAYS TO HELP OUR PLANET THIS SUMMER

Helping nature while enjoying the great outdoors is a classic win-win opportunity. Here are a few ideas to join the fun while contributing sweat equity.

Corral the Cleanup Crew

Becoming a weekend cleanup community leader can be as simple as gathering family, friends and neighbors to beautify the surroundings and save animals from suffering. To improve water quality, pay special attention to beaches and rivers. Get permission from local authorities, arrange a special trash pickup and equip the crew with gloves and garbage bags. Afterwards, stand together proudly before the enormous hill of discarded plastics, fishing lines, beer bottles, aluminum cans, fast-food containers and other refuse. Congratulate the team and take pictures to post on social media. For more tips, visit Tinyurl.com/trashteam.

Get on the Community Gardening Bandwagon

Community gardens are springing up on school grounds, at hospitals and correctional facilities, on rooftops and balconies, and in unused public spaces and underserved communities. Researchers have proven what we suspect: Gardening is a great workout and leads to improved heart health and weight loss, while breathing fresh air and helping things grow in kinship with like-minded people is a surefire mood enhancer. Reaping the benefits of locally grown, fresh produce; beautifying a neighborhood with flowering plants or shade trees; and providing food and refuge for pollinators and other wildlife is not too shabby, either. Now is the time to join an existing group or start a new community garden. For inspiring examples and how-to ideas, visit FoodIsFreeProject.org and OneTreePlanted.org.

Lend a Helping Hand at a Park

Local, state and national parks rely on volunteers to conduct tours and maintain green areas and facilities. Even artists and scientists are welcome to lend their expertise. Consider combining a park visit with purposeful assistance. The National Park Service runs a Volunteers-in-Parks program (nps.gov/getinvolved/volunteer.htm) that offers one-time service projects and longer-term positions at parks throughout the country and in U.S. territories in the Pacific and Caribbean. Visit Volunteer.gov for tasks like a campground host at the Rocky Mountain National Park or climber steward at Joshua Tree National Park. Many state park systems and municipal parks and recreation departments use websites to manage their volunteer opportunities, such as Volunteers.Flo ridaStateParks. org or tpwd.texas.gov/state-parks/ help-parks. All it takes is an internet search of the name of the state or county plus “park” and “volunteer” to find local openings.

Cereset Allows the Brain to Balance Itself

The brain is our central command center. When the brain is out of balance, or stuck, we don’t feel right and it’s impossible to function at our highest level. Cereset Galveston uses a proven non-invasive technology that’s and highly effective. Cereset allows the brain to bring itself into balance, allowing us to achieve higher levels of well-being and balance throughout our life. Cereset is not driven by a conscious effort to train the brain or change the brain’s response, like neurofeedback, Cereset is guided by the brain itself, allowing the brain to relax and reset itself naturally without conscious effort, outside intervention, stimulus, or medication of any kind. Natural adjustments are made by the brain as part of Cereset Galveston’s brain relaxation process. Cereset is fast, effective, and efficient – usually requiring five office sessions of approximately one to two hours each, and periodic “tune-ups”, as needed to provide ongoing support. Cereset Galveston has been balancing brains for 15 years.

“An imbalanced brain is one that reacts from the past…everything is a trigger. For the brain to actually have a chance to balance itself, allows a person to respond in the present moment instead of being triggered by the past.” – Amy Grant
