Book of the Week: Everyday Kindness by Stephanie Dowrick

30th OF January 2012

Let’s face it... These days, most of us are so busy that focusing on the simple notion of kindness seems almost an impossibility. But in her new book, bestselling self-development author Dr Stephanie Dowrick writes that greatest wellbeing we can derive from life comes from the giving and receiving of kindness. It’s a perfect book we can take with us into the new year.

The great thing about Everyday Kindness is how comprehensive Dowrick is in her assessment of its impact on our lives. From the grand gestures with great transformative power to the little moments that will brighten up someone’s day, Dowrick convincingly argues that the willingness to be kind to others as well as ourselves is integral to our overall happiness. Whether it be work, parenting relationships or even food, Dowrick explains that by choosing kindness we are choosing happiness, love and greater peace with the world.

Book Review: "The advice is unpatronising, gentle yet powerful and quickly resonates because – frankly – Dowrick has got it right" - Tania McCartney, Aus Women Online.
