Nov. 6 - Cookie Kindness

Day 309 of a year of kindness

My friend Vicky Bowles encouraged me to do a program about kindness at a Naples library a few months ago. So today, with Vicky sitting in the front row, I gave a kindness presentation. Vicky, who commits acts of kindness all of the time, shared her kindness experiences with the group as well. Afterwards, I took her to lunch to thank her for all of her encouragement. It was an afternoon steeped in kindness. She left with an extra chocolate chip cookie for her husband!

Science of Kindness: Research shows that helping others and being helped triggers neural mechanisms that reinforce connection and survival and creates a reciprocal loop that strengthens relationships and emotional well-being.#BeKind #KindnessCounts #KindnessCounts2025 #kindness #kindnesseffect
