About this episode
Explore kindness on a deeper level, beyond simply “being nice.” In this episode Kelly breaks down what kindness truly is, what it isn’t, and why it’s rooted in connection rather than approval, people-pleasing or self-sacrifice. She looks at kindness through psychology, evolution, and neuroscience, revealing how both giving and receiving kindness feels good and impacts you on a mental, emotional and physical level. Then she walks you through why Metta meditation is so good and helping you become a kinder person. More Mindful in Minutes ?????Join the free 5-day Nervous system reset to overcome overwhelm?????
