“Dogs, lives are short, too short, but you know that going in. You know the pain is coming, you're going to lose a dog, and there's going to be great anguish, so you live fully in the moment with her, never fail to share her joy or delight in her innocence, because you can't support the illusion that a dog can be your lifelong companion. There's such beauty in the hard honesty of that, in accepting and giving love while always aware that it comes with an unbearable price. Maybe loving dogs is a way we do penance for all the other illusions we allow ourselves and the mistakes we make because of those illusions.”

Love this!

I love when some of my books go on a large discount as it makes them accessible to many more people.

My publisher Hay House has just dropped the e-book (Kindle, Apple, etc) price of ‘The Five Side Effects of Kindness’ to $1.99 (£1.42 in the UK) in all countries, locations where it’s on sale.

I believe it’s going to be at this price for the whole of October. Awesome!😀

This book covers all the research (and has references at the back🤓) on how kindness impacts mental and physical health, even the heart, immune system, and some ageing processes. I also show that kindness is the opposite of stress.

Whatever stress does, we tend to see that kindness has an opposite effect.

In fact, “kindness hormones” (physiological products of how kindness feels) lower free radical levels inside skin cells, slowing cellular ageing, a process that’s accelerated by stress.💛

Feel free to share with friends if they’re interested in learning about the healthy benefits of kindness, and how it’s contagious. 😊
