As a result of strangers responding to a simple challenge to be kind, The Cool To Be Kind Project was created.  Stemming from a place of pain and heartache, it has grown into a global social initiative. Arianna Huffington (Thrive Global and The Huffington Post creater) recently tweeted my story. Nearly two years into this amazing adventure and with many exciting initiatives in the pipeline, I launched the global 52 Weeks of Kindness Challenge on the 1 September. It’s never too late to join; click here for more information.

When it comes to kindness, my message is simple. Being kind is cool. Being kind is also free. As a tool for change, positivity and self-care, it is definitely under utilised.

Being kind has been proven to reduce stress, and releases the feel good hormones. This would make not just your day a bit easier but those on the receiving end, too!

Whilst you are here, check out our kindness card tally, below, and purchase your own cards in our shop. Feel free to join the 52 Weeks of Kindness Challenge. Send a Positive Postcard. I would love to hear from you if you have been the giver, receiver or witness to a kind act.

One person can’t change the world but together we can make a difference.
