The Power of Kindness Kindness and happiness are directly related, both kindness to yourself and kindness to others. Acts of kindness are influential and cause the release of various neurotransmitters in your brain that promote feelings of satisfaction, well-being, stimulate healing and reduce pain. Compassion also stimulates the release of a hormone called Oxytocin. Kindness works both ways. The golden rule is to treat others as you would like to be treated. Similarly, don't say something to yourself that you wouldn't say to a friend. "Research has shown that a simple act of kindness directed toward another improves the functioning of the immune system and stimulates the production of serotonin in both the recipient of the kindness and the person extending the kindness. Kindness extended, received or observed beneficially impacts the physical health and feelings of everyone involved." - Wayne Dyer The Power of Positive Affirmations Affirmations are one of the most efficient self-healing tools available. The Law of Attraction is a belief system that we attract what we are--like attracts like. The key is the ability of affirmations to intercept negative and faulty thought patterns. Backed by scientific findings called neuroplasticity, it is possible to rewire it for a more positive experience of yourself and your life. When you change, the world changes for you.

Book excerpt: The Power of Kindness A simple act of kindness can brighten someone's day. It can be what they remember about that day, what they talk about. More often than not, it will inspire them to act, to carry forward the beauty of that moment. One simple act can create a chain reaction of shared acts of kindness - that is what this book is all about. Consider the people that cross your path each day -- family, friends, co-workers, grocery clerks, a gas station attendant, barber or hairdresser. Each contact, no matter how fleeting, presents an opportunity to make a difference. It can be as simple as the words you choose, the smile you shine or a quiet gesture you make. When you are guided by your heart in each of your daily encounters you are more present in the moment, more in tune with the people you meet and more connected to the world around you. This is among the greatest gifts you can give to others and to yourself. "If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader." - John Quincy Adams Inspiring others to act begins with doing for others. Positive connections with people have a direct impact on how we feel about ourselves. Sharing that feeling with others creates a wonderful spirit and enthusiasm that is both contagious and powerful.
