Book excerpt: In a world where you can be anything, be kind Why a kindness Journal for Children? Being kind has a great number of physical and emotional benefits, and our children require a healthy dose of warm fuzzy feelings to flourish as healthy, happy, well-rounded individuals. Patty O'Grady, PhD, an expert in the area of neuroscience, emotional learning, and positive psychology sats "kindness changes the brain by the experience of kindness. Children do not learn kindness by only thinking about it and talking about it. Kindness is best learned by feeling it so that they can reproduce it. Kindness is an emotion that Children feel and empathy is a strength that they share Science explains that the good feelings we experience when being kind are produced by endorphins that activate areas of the brain that are associated with pleasure, social connection and trust, and it's proven that these feelings of joyfulness are contagious, encouraging more kind behavior by the giver and recipient. Kind, happy children enjoy greater peer acceptance because they are well-liked and better than average mental health is reported in classrooms that practice more inclusive behavior due to an even distribution of popularity Being kind can trigger a release of the hormone oxytocin which has a number of physical and mental health benefits and it significantly increases our children's happiness and reduces stress. Children experience a 'helpers high' when they do a good deed, a rush of endorphins that creates a lasting sense of pride, well-being and an enriched sense of belonging. Even small acts of kindness are reported to heighten their sense of well-being, increase energy and give a wonderful feeling of optimism and self-worth When children are part of projects that help others less fortunate than themselves, it provides them with a real sense of perspective and gratitude and helps them appreciate the good things in their own lives As it increases serotonin, which plays an important part in learning, memory, mood, sleep, health and digestion, kindness is a key ingredient that helps children feel good. Having a positive outlook allows them greater attentions spans and enables more creative thinking to produce better results at school too.
