5 FACTS ABOUT KINDNESS
1. Start with children: One in four children in the U.S. experience bullying at school on a regular basis — teaching kids to be kind to everyone, even if they're different, and to stand up to bullying when they see it, turns them into brave and kind adults.
2. A day of unity: Though the movement isn't affiliated with any religion or political movement, over 28 nations participate in World Kindness Day.
3. It pays to be kind: People who are constantly kind produce 23% less cortisol, which is the stress hormone — because of the lower levels of stress, people who practice kindness age slower than the average population.
4. Kindness is contagious: Researchers from the Stanford Social Neuroscience Laboratory found that when people see someone else being kind, they are more likely to act kindly towards others themselves.
5. It lowers blood pressure: Emotional warmth releases the hormone oxytocin, which dilates the blood vessels and therefore lowers your blood pressure.
WORLD KINDNESS DAY ACTIVITIES:
1. Perform at least three random acts of kindness today - Give compliments. Smile at strangers. Hold a door open. Give up your seat In a crowded room. Perform at least three random acts of kindness and see what magic follows!
2. Give extra (and extra-long) hugs today - Kindness and connection go hand-in-hand. Take a few extra minutes to hug your loved ones and friends today. They might wonder what got into you, but they’ll appreciate it nonetheless!
3. Write a love poem to yourself and read it out loud - You should be kind to yourself, today, too. Write a short (or long) poem highlighting the things you appreciate about yourself and your life.
