Kindness and Self-Kindness
Richard Davidson’s research at the Center for Healthy Minds shows that a regular practice of kindness–in as little as two weeks–can improve our well-being. Sending kindness to others is one way to practice, but we can also send kindness to ourselves. This simple yet powerful action supports well-being.
Sending kind thoughts is a lesson in our research-backed Mindful Schools K-12 curriculum. Dive deeper into this lesson and learn science, strategies, and resources to bring mindfulness to your classroom in our 201: Mindfulness in the Classroom course. Mindful Schools has trained over 60,000 educators to bring mindfulness to school settings.
