The Power in Being Kind: Happiness Achieved Through the Effect of Kindness Using Positive Affirmations for Kids and Adults Paperback

Hmmmm, Hard to explain exactly what I think about this book. In it's totality, I wasn't greatly moved to action. The beginning of the book was pretty good...and as I worked my way through it, I found a few nuggets to hold on to. I ordered 2 thinking it would be a great gift....but after I read it, I decided to just donate the second book to a worthy cause. I think Compassion by Karen Armstrong might be more inspiring and informative for you. Kindness is totally worth the effort it takes to make it a habit. Good luck.

A concise discussion on the science of kindness and how important it is to practice kindness towards others and ourselves. There is a list of affirmations you can pick from to get started on the path to promote kindness and if you choose only one a day, the list will last longer than two weeks. A nice, quick-read for anyone wanting to live a kinder life.

Loved this book, very well written and has some very good and easy to implement steps to be an all around balanced human being. Loved this read!!!!

This is a nice book for beginners using affirmations. It is a brief, enjoyable read that provides many sample affirmations that prove to be very useful. I would recommend it to anyone starting on their journey to mindfulness.

Very short (essay length) with good, basic ideas and great, supporting information. Easy, simple steps one can use to develop a practice of thinking to build kindness. A little preachy with some self promotion, it could go a little deeper but a quick, worthwhile reading.
