August 25th marks the beginning of Be Kind to Humankind Week. This celebration of goodwill reminds us that we have the power to make the world a better place — for ourselves and our fellow humans.
Kindness is more than a nice gesture. It’s a fundamental part of what sustains us as human beings. In our fast-paced work and home lives, simple acts of compassion, empathy, and community care can be life-changing. When we are kind to ourselves and others, we create emotional safety, deepen our relationships, and build supportive communities.
Kindness helps us stay connected to our shared humanity, and this connection has proven benefits for mental and emotional well-being.
August's 10-day challenge encourages us to reflect on how kindness — to ourselves and others — helps us all flourish. Let’s put kindness into practice!

Start with one min of gratitude and positive affirmations then increase to continually counting those blessings Deb Stuart RN
I love this challenge. Gratitude is a powerful practice, and it only takes a few minutes. As part of my morning meditation, I express gratitude and self-compassion. I encourage everyone to find three things you’re grateful for about yourself. Perhaps you stood up to advocate for your patient, or you took time for yourself today. Recognizing gratitude for yourself can be difficult, but the more you acknowledge how amazing you are, the easier it becomes to show up and care for others. 💖
We got this @Khalil P
