Kindness is more than doing a favor for a friend or giving a portion of your paycheck to charity. Kindness is the quality of being loving, genuine, and empathetic – and spreading this energy into every area of your life. But in order to really show kindness to the world, you must first be kind to yourself, which begins with taking care of yourself and your personal needs. Read More

These are all ways to naturally build our body’s immune system. So why are we so sick as a nation? Read More
