The 13th of November is World Kindness Day. It’s your chance to spread some kindness, so here’s a few ideas to get you started.
Upload a happy picture of yourself and tell your family and friends to have a great day. That way you get to make all your connections on Facebook smile.
Phone a Friend
Get in touch with someone you haven’t seen for a while and have a catch-up on the phone. It might be a friend, or it could be a family member you don’t see often. Definitely to it if you have someone elderly in the family.
Make a Meal
If you’ve got a friend who is always busy with her kids, go round to her house and make her some lunch. That way you get to see her even when she’s too busy to meet you elsewhere. You can give her a hand while you swap all your news.
Queuing Up
When you’re in the supermarket queue, let someone elderly or a harassed mum go in front of you and give them a big smile.
Parents
Ask your parents if there is something they would like to do or see for a day out and then treat them to it.
Kids
Get out the board games and sit and play with your kids. When the games have finished give them their favourite meal and let them do something they love doing for half an hour before bedtime.
Partner
Leave a love note or a big smiley cut-out in your partner’s trouser pocket or bag to make them smile.
On the Road
Let a car pull out before you and give the driver a big smile.
At Work
Organise a collection of food from colleagues to donate to your nearest food bank.
And Finally…
Be Kind to Yourself
Book yourself a course of microdermabrasion sessions. They are a great way to keep your skin looking healthy and young. They diminish fine lines and wrinkles and help to produce collagen which will firm up any sagging. You’ll notice the difference after your very first session.
