Book Hero thinking about your next read

Using the tree of kindness - roots, branches and fruits - to enhance and enrich our lives.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

This insightful book is divided into three sections, each forming part of a 'tree of kindness' that can grow from small beginnings and shelter us from the storms of life.

The first section (roots) deals with the foundations of kindness. Section two (branches) outlines five key 'pathways to kindness' that show how kindness operates at a personal level. The final section (fruits and seeds) explores the ripple effects of kindness, extending out from beyond ourselves to our relationships with others.

Throughout Practical Kindness, there are plenty of practical ideas and compassion-based mindfulness exercises for bringing more kindness into your everyday life.
