Engaging in an act of kindness can be simple but it may also feel a little scary (it does involve other people, after all). Random Acts of Kindness Day could be the 'excuse' you need to get that positive ripple effect going - acts of kindness inspire further acts of kindness. Not to mention the health (physical and mental) benefits for both parties! 💚

Some ideas:
Donate used blankets or towels to an animal shelter.
Share a favourite memory with a loved one.
Sign up to be an organ donor.
Ship a care package to someone away from family and friends.
Leave a friendly comment below with ideas of your own! 😉

Environmental wellness reinforces the principle that healing is not simply “inside the body” but “in the body, and in the environment around it", inviting alternative therapists to widen the lens: how is the light, air and acoustics of a home; presence (or absence) of natural green space; indoor air quality; and even awareness of one’s carbon-footprint, influencing therapeutic outcomes? 💚

The type of food we put into our bodies have an undeniable impact on our health - either for good, or for bad. When you feel overwhelmed with the information-overload from the wellness industry, just go back to basics: unprocessed, fresh food, cutting out alcohol and sugar. Build from there! 💚
