The Kindness Cure: How the Science of Compassion… von Tara Cousineau
This is a really good introduction to the current research about kindness. Before reading this I didn’t have the vocabulary to talk about the things inhibit kindness, like empathic distress and compassion fatigue. Now I feel like I have the words and resources to move forward in my journey to becoming a kinder person.
Thank you to New Harbinger Publications, Raincoast Books and Net Galley for providing me with an e-galley of The Kindness Cure by Tara Cousineau in exchange for an honest review. As the author states, our world is gravely lacking in empathy, respect and common decency. We seem to have strayed away from kindness in our lives instead of kindness being natural and necessary. This book deals with scientific data and personal research that prove over and over again how important kindness is to the quality of our lives. I thought The Kindness Cure might be preachy but, on the contrary, it is an enlightening text that promotes kindness to give joy and grace to our own lives as well as to the lives of those who cross our path. Kindness shown is kindness paid forward. Indifference does not enhance anyone's life. The author takes us on a step by step path to achieving kindness for ourselves and others. I highly recommend this book, especially in these troubled times.… (mehr)
