Become your kindest self and learn how to enrich the lives of those around you with The Little Pocket Book of Kindness. “Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.” His Holiness the Dalai Lama (B.1935) Kindness is contagious. One good deed can lead to a huge positive impact upon another, inspiring them to do a good deed in return, and perpetuating a harmonic of ever-increasing happiness. Even the smallest of acts can make a whole world of difference! The Little Pocket Book of Kindness is a breath of fresh air and a reminder of all of the good things in the world. It contains lists of ways to be kind and how to make time for the people in your life, improving their lives as well as your own. Studies have shown that acting selflessly, and seeing another person act altruistically, produces good feelings and instills a more positive and happier outlook. Being kind is essential to creating a better and happier world. The Little Pocket Book of Kindness, with stirring quotations and tales of inspirational icons, such as Mother Teresa and Mahatma Gandhi, will help you aspire to and become the kindest version of yourself. This book has been beautifully illustrated and is filled with color drawings and photographs. Give it a read and enrich the lives of those around you.
