The Kindness in Action Program creates a daily consciousness of kindness at home, in your workplace and in the community. Research has repeatedly proven that kindness helps us to be happier, healthier, more productive, and have better relationships.

For three decades, I have worked with individuals facing challenging life situations, whether it be counseling individuals with debilitating mental health issues, sitting at the bedside of someone near death, helping people face late stage cancer, or a client who is suffering from a life stressor…The one consistent theme that stands out with every single person, is the desire to be at peace with who they are, and happy with what they are doing.

I’ve always believed that one person can change the world, and I am grateful to have recently experienced it.  As a volunteer at the Mechi Eye Hospital in Birtamod, Nepal, I witnessed Dr. Geoff Tabin and his partner, Nepalese eye surgeon Dr. Sanduk Ruit, cure thousands of the visually-impaired and blind. This is just one of the many locations of the Himalayan Cataract Project in developing countries.

Burnout…we’ve heard about it, maybe experienced it, worried about it or seen it in others. The root of burnout can be stress, overwork, persistent workplace problems, or maybe even the realization that you don't enjoy your work.

As parents, mentors and teachers, we know we can use kindness to better our own lives, but what about when it comes to children?
