Kindness and empathy help us connect emotionally with our
family friends and those tht we encounter. Kindness enhances our personal
relationships and sense of belonging in a community. Research also shows tht
kindness is good for our health and wellbeing. Hormones are
released that make us feel good. According to research from Emory University, when you are
kind to another person, your brain’s pleasure and reward centres light up, as
if you were the recipient of the good deed—not the giver. This phenomenon is
called the “helper’s high. |
