Building Kindness as a Superpower, Episode 4 Reissue
Show Notes

Are you finding that you are falling back to not being as kind as you would like? Especially under pressure? Today, we build the internal practice of kindness so that we can make the kindness neuropathway in our brain more robust, more powerful so that kindness becomes easier for us to access even in our more challenging moments.

 Let walk!

 

“Three things in human life are important. The first is to be kind. The second is to be kind. And the third is to be kind."

Henry James

 

 "I think the most important question facing humanity is, ‘Is the universe a friendly place?’

Albert Einstein

 

“A tree is known by its fruit; a man by his deeds. A good deed is never lost; he who sows courtesy reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love.”

Saint Basil 

If you're new to the Last 8% Morning, over the course of 15 minutes we integrate movement, mindfulness, and mental training exercises. Why? So we can build the skills necessary to be our best in our more difficult moments, what we call the Last 8%. What are these skills? These are skills of emotional intelligence. Why? We do this because it is emotion that gets in our way.
