Being Kind to Your Future Self

In our third dharma talk in this seven-part series on kindness, we begin by looking at the research behind kindness to remind us of how powerful kindness practice is to our well-being and happiness - and to our spiritual path. Then, taking some of this knowledge into what's happening in our brain when we are kind, we apply it to acts of kindness for our future selves. By framing our choices in this moment through the lens of an act of kindness for our future self, we understand the implications of each choice, leaning our choices towards better outcomes.

Dear Meredith, my future self (and present self) are grateful for your encouragement of acts of kindness. Thank you. Sending kind, good wishes.

The Tim Horton story was incredible!❤️I’ve never thought of future self before…. That was so helpful, thank you 🙏🏻 ☺️

Dear Meredith, thank you for this which finds me the last few days learning how to treat myself nicer. I got seriius back injury that had to do with lots of pressure at home and more. Hugs from here to you at Mexico 🙏🏾🦋🪷
