Kindness is contagious. When we are kind, we inspire others to be kind, and it creates a ripple effect that spreads outward to our coworkers, family, friends and even strangers. Kindness to both ourselves and others, can have a positive impact on relationships and happiness, and can even be a route to better health.
Faculty and staff are invited to join the Kindness in Action challenge. It’s a three-week self-paced email challenge designed to help you learn simple ways to add more kindness to your daily routine. Each week you will work on meaningful ways to express kindness to yourself, your body and others to help promote a cycle of happiness and positivity.
Everyone who completes the challenge will be entered into a prize drawing. Participants will also have opportunities to complete bonus activities and earn extra points!
