Kindness is an extension of yourself. You can be inherently kind hearted and therefore kindness is a natural part of who you are. This can be challenging during busy, stressful or lonely times. In a world where you can be anything you want, choosing to be kind is the most powerful and helpful wellbeing response. Kindness is a universal principle that many hope to be remembered for long after they’re gone. It begins with self-kindness, a key component of kindness, which is cultivated through daily mindfulness, attention training, conversation and practice. While kindness is typically thought of as how we treat others, self-kindness is about how we treat ourselves, especially when we face challenges, or experience difficulties when stressed. Self-kindness is the foundation of resilience that many struggle to cultivate. Start cultivating self-kindness today, in all its forms, for everyday personal wellbeing.
