We all know how good it feels to receive kindness.

\\n

Whether a simple compliment or acknowledgment, an act of assistance, or even a simple thank you; when someone does something kind for us or to us we feel it.

\\n

And it feels really good!

\\n

But what we don\\u2019t usually recognize is how beneficial it is to express kindness and to practice it towards others.

\\n

(Note: We should always be practicing kindness towards ourselves! And I\\u2019ll get into that in another episode. But what we\\u2019re talking about today is all about between ourselves and others.)

I go into this and review three super simple practices you can do today to develop this vital integration and enjoy the benefits of regulation, attention, and awareness that will follow.

\\n

Enjoy!
