Feb. 11 - Kindness as Celebration

Day 42 of a year of Kindness 

Sometimes self-care requires throwing yourself a little party. It is my birthday week, so it seemed like dinner in an igloo was necessary. My birthday strategy - even as a kid - has been to plan my birthday. It’s much more fun that way and I’m never disappointed. So, tonight, I had a birthday dinner in a cozy outdoor igloo by the sea with people I love. In this crazy world, I need to find ways to celebrate. 

Science of kindness: Celebrating an occasion nurtures our minds and bodies. From boosting neurotransmitters like dopamine and endorphins, to fostering social connections, lowering pain, and promoting long-term health, the benefits of celebrations are backed by science. Taking time enjoy your life and celebrate is a very kind thing to do for your mental health. #kindnessmatters #kindness #kindnessiscontagious @10kindnessclub #celebrategoodtimescomeon
