Freedom Friday:

Coach Tavia


"Unexpected kindness is the most powerful, least costly, and most underrated agent of human change."


Think about this quote for a moment... sit with it... slow your brain down as you breath in deeply.... and exhale slowly... clear your thoughts and reread....


How does this quote resonate with you?


Happy Friday Everyone and Happy Holidays!


Whether you celebrate the holidays or not, there is never a bad time to be kind.


What Does kindness mean to you?


Kindness:

  • the quality of being friendly, generous and considerate

  • Is know as a virtue and recognized as a virtue in many cultures and religions

  • Marked by ethical characteristics, good and charitable behavior, pleasant disposition and genuine concern for others

  • Kind people treat others how they want to be treated: They are empathetic, helpful without hesitation, and go out of their way to make people smile

How Kind are you?


More importantly, why does it matter..?


*Research tells us that energy follows attention and what we choose to focus on and practice grows stronger.


We humans have the tenancy to focus on the negative... we complain... share our hassles and heartaches more than anything else. If you are crazy enough to listen to the news, politics and world affairs these days fuel this fire. We unconsciously continue to program our brain to filter everything with a negative bias.


How can we shift our negative bias to a more positive outlook?


Kindness of course! However, if you are serious about making a change you MUST be intentional to overcome that programmed negative bias.


Today's Kindness Challenge: Intentionally take notice of when you're hard on yourself or others. Pause and be kind instead. It's not easy... It may feel forced... but the more you practice the easier it will become. Soon it will feel natural and part of your DNA.


"Kindness can become its own motive. We are made kind by being kind."


How will you intentionally be more kind today?



You got this!
