EAT WELL, PLAY MORE, AND LOVE YOURSELF
One of the easiest ways to practice kindness is to have the mindset that we can create a life of possibilities and a healthy reality. By teaching our minds to seek solutions instead of dwelling on problems. My morning meditation can get interrupted with problem thinking such as “if you don’t do this task before 7 AM, you failed”. I push such thoughts away with the kindness of a solution driven statement: “this task will be done regardless of the time of the day.” Kindness is non-judgmental; it is affirmative. Kindness is in our language and mindset, of course, if we are kind to ourselves, we engender a serene reality. We see solutions where there are problems and we thrive.
