Compcy Capsules Slashes at do Today. I'm going to be
doing a let's talk to me a little see audio
(01:16):
podcast and the reason I'm doing this another one is,
because what's annoying me is that last night I did
a podcast Hey Buddy with my buddy Brandy Guitar. But
for some reason the file got lost and wouldn't upload,
and it wouldn't I couldn't find it on my phone.
I don't know what happened. So yeah, well I didn't
(01:36):
really necessarily lose I'd lost it because I was starting
to mess with fiddle with it and unfortunately got lost
on my phone, which is annoying. Un it went upload,
it went upload to any of my social media's, so
I'm not sure exactly what's going on. But so I
had a really good podcast last night with Brandon. We
talked about security and life and things you know that nature,
(01:57):
about our children and things like that. Again, kind of annoying.
I wish it would have gone that way, but this
is how things are. You know, sometimes technology doesn't work.
So I'm really hoping that this podcast comes out well.
So basically, it's my little boy in the back and sorry,
if you hear the loud noise, yeah, go watch the show.
(02:19):
But and then if you hear noise in the background,
he's watching Spidey in the background. Anyway, So today's advice
video or having it Wow podcasts. I'm a little tired,
so today's podcast is going to be about whelm. I'd
like to look up a lot of mental health things
like that. And I know that May was Mental Health
Month or or Weareness Month, but to me, I think
(02:40):
every day should be mental health awareness a month or day.
So I just looked there's something real simple, real easy,
and I'm gonna give my own personal reflections based off
with us as So what can be nice to do
for others? Right? So, being being nice others can't significantly
improve their emotional weal, being foster stronger relationship even have
(03:01):
positive impacts on their physical health. It can boost their confidence, happiness,
and optimism, and encourage them to repeat good deeds, creating
a more positive community. Here's more detailed look at the
benefits emotional well being. Being kind can reduce stress and
promote and boost self esteem both for the giver and
the receiver, and can also help reduce feelings of loneliness
(03:21):
and isolation. Hold on, I'll be right back al right, guys,
(03:42):
Sorry about that for a second there. I was just
gonna turn out the volume on the TV a little bit,
just so you can hear a little better, so stronger relationships.
Kindness can strengthen bonds with family, friends, and colleagues, creating
a more supportive and connected environment. Physical health research suggests
that active kindness maybe uh may have positive impacts on
(04:05):
physical health, including reducing blood pressure, decreasing cortisol levels, and
potentially promoting longevity community building. When people experience kindness, they
are more likely to reciprocate and spread good deeds, contributing
to a more positive and supportive community, and then increase
empathy and compassion. Being kind fosters a deeper understanding of
(04:26):
others and its courages empathy and compassion. So let's see
if we click on one of these links here. Okay,
let's see. Let's go to how being kind of others
(04:54):
helps to you. Okay, so this is from censorstone dot
org us. See what they have to say. We all
know the golden rule treat others the way you want
to be treated yourself. From childhood that we are told
that kindness is an important part of life. Being kind
of others helps us, helps makes us feel good, and
helps make the world a better place. But did you
(05:17):
know that being kind can also help your own mental health,
which is what we're talking about right now. He's so funny.
As much as we do as much as we do
X to make others feel good, being kind also makes
us feel just as good. While we should approach performing
kinds of preferring it, while we should approach performing kind
(05:41):
acts as a way to be good to others and
not just to ourselves, it is helpful to know this
truth When you were having a hard time with depression
or any other mental health issues, being kind may be
just the best thing to turn it around. Being kind
triggers the reward system in your brain release and chemicals
that produce positive feelings. These chemicals amplify good moods and
(06:05):
can change bad moods to good. They can even go
beyond making you feel better mentally and ease physical pain
that you're experiencing. These reactions make you more likely to
continue performing these acts of kindness, improving yourself forth and
further strengthening your overall mental health. Performing as to kindness
also strengthens the moods between you and others. Being kind
(06:28):
to someone makes them more prone to be kind in
return for the strengthening your relationship and building stronger support
system for both parties. Beyond the relationship, your acts of
kindness may inspire them to perform at kind I'm sorry
to I am so tired people. I was up late
last night doing this podcast, and my podcast is my buddy.
(06:48):
But then again, like I said, I got a race,
so I'm not really running out a lot of sleep
right now. But the show must go on anyway. So again,
beyond the relationships you were, active kindness may inspire them
to perform acts of kindness for others, continually spreading the
love and positive feelings. And this is what I talk
about all the time and half my videos that I
(07:09):
do or my vice videos or what have you. So
here are some ways you can perform active kindness in
your community. Send a handwritten letter to a friend to
let them know that you're thinking about them. Schedule a
phone call or or video a call with someone to
catch up and see how they're doing. Surprise someone by
(07:30):
sending a gift or treat in the mail. Offer to
drop off a meal out of the house or of
a friend who might be having a hard time. Find
an important cause to get involved in. I guess donation,
whatever would have you or you volunteer for clean up
someone else's mess in your household, give a random compliment
(07:50):
to a loved one, lending this listening ear to someone
in need, Offer to pick up groceries for a neighbor,
take the burden of a tack off a coworker, Take
interest in someone else's hobbies. Leave a positive review on
a or a good tip, even when a worker doesn't
do the best job. So this was from being a
(08:16):
centristone dot org. Thank you very much for that, sender Stone.
Let's see, let's go to Mayo Clinical System. So the
thing is that being kind isn't that hard. And you know,
it's just like in my moles vice advice video that
(08:38):
I made about how why it's important for you to
be kind on your line of work, so you can
be the one that makes that difference, especially with other
people of depth, people in your line of work that
you do as well. But those other people might have
been mean to them so or like not cheated them,
right or whatever. So because of that, you automatically get
that reputation to be in the same way just because
you're associated with that but with the company, right or
(09:02):
just not in that company. But I mean, like those
others in general, like when it comes to like security, right,
more than half the time, you know, we get a
lot of flack and get a lot of pushback because
you know, people think that were just mean and rude,
and we think that we're cops and we want to
you know, with authority on people. No, no, no, that's
the things that we're just trying to follow. The procedures
(09:22):
and protocols of where we work. We do at our
job for our establishment, you know, like that, that's all
we're trying to do. So if you're kind about it
and you taking a nice way into appressing a nice way,
people won't look at you like you are the jerk
or like you are that guy that they deal with
all the time. They'll be like, oh wow, hey, this
guy's got the same profession as the last person I
(09:44):
dealt with insecurity, But he was actually nice. He was corporible,
he understood, he you know, was on my side about
a lot of things. You know, you know, just whatever
in general, you know, just you got to play the
card to being the nice guy, especially in security or
any job or occupation where you're going to be interacting
with other people. So this one's from Mayo Clinic HealthSystem
(10:10):
dot org. And this one is the art of kindness.
So here's what they have to say. Kindness is more
than behavior. The art of kindness involves harboring the spirit
of helpfulness, being generous and considerate, and doing so without
expecting anything in return. Right, rather than viewing it exclusively
as an action, think of kindness as a quality of
being you can cultivate right giving. Kindness often a simple, free,
(10:36):
and health enhancing So here's what they have to say.
It's good for the body. Kindness has been shown to
increase self esteem, empathy, and compassion, and improved mood. It
can decrease blood pressure and cortisol, are hormone directly correlated
with stress levels. People who give themselves people who give
(10:58):
of themselves in a balanced way also tend to be
healthier and live longer. Okay, and then they have to
and then they highlight high kindness can increase your sense
of connectivity with others, decrease slowliness, combat low mood, and
improve relationships. It can also be contagious, encouraging others to
join it in with their own generous needs or deeds.
(11:20):
You know, me very cool? Check this brainess down? Might
computer a little bit. Okay, looking for ways to show
kindness can give you something to focus on, especially if
you're anxious of stress and a certain social situation. Right so,
and that's good for the mind. Psychologically, kindness can positively
change your brain by boosting levels of serotonin and dopamine.
(11:43):
These neurotransmitters produce feelings of satisfaction and well being, and
can cause the pleasure and reward centers in your brain
to lighten up. Endor Fins, your body's natural painkiller, also
may be released. When do you show kindness? Excuse me, so,
be kind to yourself when sharing kindness. It's not just
(12:06):
how you treat other people, it's also about how you
extend those same behaviors and intentions to yourself. I believe
you can be kinder in your own self talk and
practicing guide or practicing gratitude. Okay, right? True. So people
are good at verbally beating themselves up, which does not
work as a pep talk rather negatively, often causes you
(12:29):
to unravel and may even create a vicious cycle of
regularly getting down on yourself. You shouldn't talk to I
mean you want to talk to your neighbor the way
you sometimes speak to yourself. This is what I call
the good neighbor policy, which can be helpful. If you
wouldn't say it to your good neighbor, don't say it
about yourself. You know, and that's so true. Just be
(12:51):
nice to yourself, be kind, love yourself seriously. Take action.
Start to day with this question, how am I going
to practice kindness today? For a homeworking assignment, I have
invited some patients to pay attention to periodically document their
evidence of kindness to others and especially to themselves during
the day. This positive focus is like planning positive needs
(13:15):
in your mind garden. Where focus goes, energy goes A
young clients as if I wanted to get them on
the ark or arc, want to ask them what that meant,
he replied, acts of random kindness. How about you or are
you willing to go in the arc? Consider joining Mayo
clinic call centers, kickstarts doesn't bring on to start your
(13:38):
kindness journey of this program of there's many ideas on
how to extend kindness to yourself, community, environment, home, family, coworkers,
and others. Finally, I'd like to leave you with this
quote by the Dalai Lama Dalai Lama be kind whenever possible.
It is always possible. Wow, I like that. So this
(13:59):
is supposed to buy Steve Sigley s I E G
L E Physical doctor, phyz dps Y d l PC.
So he's a psychiatric psychiatric psychiatry psychiatry. There we go
in physiao and psychology professor. I'm gonna guess or professional.
(14:20):
So very cool. So see, we just need to learn
how to be kind and how to spread kindness and
love in this world. And you know, especially with how
mean and nasty and angry this world can be. We
we again, I know I keep saying it all the time,
but you know, there's just mean people out there. There's jerks,
there's people are dealing with something you don't know they're
(14:42):
going through. So you know, maybe instead of just getting
mad and angry and we're telling you back, showed them
some kind of lover kindness back. You know they'll make
them feel better. Really, Yeah, I love you so much. Okay,
you do that, man. See this is why I do
(15:06):
a podcasts so you can kind of be free, kind
of talk, let whatever going around. You don't really have
to edit anything, don't have to worry about looking nice
on camera. You knowing that I got my hairld done
and everything, and I look kind of nice on my
business shirt.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
Huh.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
I'm doing a podcast. You want to join me? Hello? Hey, huh, yeah,
I'm reading. You want to read with me for a second.
I'm it's I think it's in the basement. You want
to when we open up? You want to go look? Okay,
(15:42):
I'll be right back. Everyone, hold on, don't go anywhere.
Hold on, you think it's up here? Okay? All right,
Well if you can't find it, then I'll go get
it for you in the basement. All right, excuse me, everybody.
I love that boy. So, yeah, you wanna look in
(16:10):
the basement.
Speaker 2 (16:11):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (16:23):
So this is from health direct dot gov and this
is let's see who publishes free Australian health advice. You
can count on motorcycle. Motorcycle hold it. But you wanna
give me the uh up up the basement door for you? Yeah, okay,
(16:44):
I'll be right back. Excuse me. People just trying to
(17:18):
make sure my boy is good to go. So benefits
of kindness and compassion, So this says, research are showing
that people who are kind and compassion are more connected
with their lives. They have better physical and mental health
and feel less isolated, fostering stronger relationships. Small kinds of factness,
such as a small or hello, can have enormous power
(17:39):
the person that's okay. The person being kind in the
recipient can both benefit. You can be kind, generous, and
compassion to someone you know or to a stranger. Stead
of the showing benefits from kindness compassion of giving, the
benefits can be greater sense of a contentment or well being,
(18:00):
good mental health, less stress, better relationships, and connection to
common humanity. The kindness people get huh okay, the happiness
people get from giving to others, that's okay. So the
(18:20):
happiness people huh okay, I'll move it, come on, let's go, okay,
right back again, okay, okay, sorry. So the happiness people
(18:51):
get from giving from giving to others can make a
positive feedback. The more you give, the more positive you feel. This,
in turn feels fuels greater contement or well being. Right,
so one active kindness leads to others. People who see
someone being kind and carrying are more are also more
(19:11):
likely to be kind themselves. People who are on the
receiving into someone's kindness can become kinder and more compassionate.
What is positive psychology? Puzzle psychology tries to understand what
makes individuals and community strong, envibrate and listen to what
make and to what things and actions make people have
a satisfying life. So one way to use positive psychology
(19:35):
is to do random acts of kindness. Things can be
like paying forward, give someone a treat, like buying a
cup of coffee for the person behind you in a cafe,
Sending notes saying things. Write a thank you note to
someone you admire or who has helped you out, Posting
a sticky note, posts stick post and notes with nice
(19:57):
messages written on them around your house or somewhere in public.
I know body, I'll help you. Look when I'm done, okay.
Volunteering Being a volunteer helps others and is good and
it's good for you too. Donating to a charity store
help people out by giving a way that you don't
(20:18):
want or need anymore, but giving away what you don't write.
Smiling or grating strangers. Smells are contagious. It makes you
feel good if people smile back. Obviously, let people, letting
people know that you, Letting people know you love what
they do. This could be someone you know or admire,
(20:40):
like a teacher or musician. So kindness and compassion during recovery.
So almost everybody feels good when someone is kind of them.
This may be especially true for people with a mental
illness like depression or anxiety, learning to live with dementia,
or who have an addiction. Acts of kindness of compassion,
both giving and receiving, can increase well being. Well Being
(21:01):
is when you feel healthy and content. Well being can
make you feel like you have a sense of purpose.
You can feel like you matter and are able to
make a difference. Also, helping someone increase their wellbeing can
help them and make you feel better as well. It
can help get over feelings of willnliness, and isolation. It
(21:21):
can help you build healthy relationships. It can also help
improve your self esteem. There are many ways to be
kind and compassionate to someone who needs help. These include
being sensitive and sympathetic by listening rather than advice, giving,
helping them feel positive, pointing out their strengths, helping them
(21:42):
helping them, helping them feel that they have hope, noticing
supporting positive changes that make helping themselves problems, helping them
reduce stress, helping with practical things like going to appointments.
So I like that a lot. That was from Yeah,
(22:03):
so health direct dot gov. You know a little problem
is that a lot of people just you know, we
need we just need to get back to kindness and love.
You know. That's that's all I'm gonna say. Uh, let's see,
you're so cute. Hey, but the Nation's Health dot org
(22:23):
was dead? Oh is it you little take a little
rocking after thing?
Speaker 2 (22:27):
What'd you kind?
Speaker 1 (22:30):
I don't know?
Speaker 2 (22:32):
Is it fire thing?
Speaker 1 (22:36):
It could be, it could be. Yeah, yeah, all right,
so I'm almost done by the Okay, I just got
like one or two more articles to read and then
we'll get back to you. Okay, that boys my whole world. Okay,
you do that. So this was from the Nation's Health
dot Org. Practicing kindness is gage for your health. So
(23:01):
so times get simple acts of kindness such as holding
holding such as a stranger holding a door for you.
A compliment from your partner or a smile from a
colleague can brighten your day. And now, thanks to science,
we know that kindness is good for your long term
physical and mental health. From a public health perspective, kindness
is an incredible is an incredibly healthy thing to do,
(23:23):
says researcher Cali Harding, md mp MPH. Numerous studies show
that kindness in all the different areas of our lives,
from our homes to our relationships, schools, or workplaces in communities,
impacts our health in many positive ways. Kindness is defined
as an act of generously generosity sorry, best given without
(23:47):
experience and expecting anything in return. I told you because
I'm tired. Sorry, I'm not really making a lot of sense,
whether you were the giver or the receiver. Studies showed
that simple acts of kindness can improve mood and self
boosting the immune system, lower blood pressure, and relieve anxiety
by decreasing levels of your body's feel good chemicals. Students
(24:10):
I'm sorry students also link kindness with fewer aches and
pains and more good news apparentist and kindness is free
and readily available to everyone. And I am tired, I'm
mixing my words up, briband I'm sorry. More importantly, kindness
buffer stress hearting, says Harding, whose research on the topic
(24:31):
led her to write The Rabbit Effect. Live Longer, happier,
and healthier with groundbreaking science of kindness. Yeah, but I'm sorry,
hold on one second. This book's name is a nod
to a nineteen seventy study that's set out to establish
the relationship between high cholesterol and heart health and rabbits.
(24:52):
One nurturing and researcher who happen to be very kind
and caring, naturally petted, cuddle and shown kind is to
wonderful rabbits. Surprisingly, her kindness help protect those bundies from
heart attacks. There are lots of strategies to offset stress,
but a simple but a simple one isn't acts of kindness.
Hearting says. It's an immediate boost, and it's fascinating because
(25:16):
the emotional response you can actually feel in your body
also have a positive help benefit. Humans are hardware to
be kind, Hearting says, noting that we constantly mirror each
other's emotions. In fact, not only does kindness benefit the
giver and the receiver, and also benefits people who observe
(25:38):
someone somebody being kind, making them more likely to be
kind as well. Well. Obviously that it rubs off on others.
If you want to get started on showing kindness, start
by being kind to yourself. As she says, rest one.
You need rest like right like I can use as an
app right now, check in with your emotions and take
a break if you need to. You don't be too
(25:58):
hard on yourself. It's a situation where you think you
could be kinder, or you could have been kinder. We
all have her moments, she says, give yourself permission to
be human, right, So the power of kindness, and I
think this might be the less little bit of our
other's dow more things. Okay, every human being has an
opportunity to make a difference in others lives. It's really
(26:20):
just a choice, says Harding, who offers a few simple
ways to begin creating tiny positive ripples that can lead
to an ocean of kindness. Yeah, I will, and the
second I'm almost done, I promise. Okay, So put your
phone down and in presonent with your kids, partner of friends,
(26:42):
and loved ones. So I'm, you know, trying to do
that right now, but with my boy. But I also
want to finish this podcast. It's one of the kindest
things that people can do in our highly distanced world
because our brains really crave the luxury of face to
face interactions, she says, offering our full attention isn't itself
(27:05):
an active kindness and stuffing something we can all do.
Pause before you interact with someone. It is actually an
active kindness because studies show we are more likely to
be kind when we're not in a rush. Volunteers, volunteer
when you can. Volunteering is a great way to show kindness,
heartening says and Interestingly, studies show that volunteers live longer,
(27:26):
probably because the social interaction makes them feel less lonely
and boost health. Reach out to people, have once with
a friend and relative, or just send a quick text
saying hello, I've been thinking about you. Offer a compliment.
Kind words and compliments can be can make someone feel seen,
valued and cared for. Ask for their day and ask
(27:47):
how their day is going. And it's a simple epic kindness,
heartening says and when you do it many times over
the course of your day, you're actually buffering your own
self esteem as well. So give a hug to someone
who you care about. In addition to being an active kindness,
studies show that people who give or get daily hugs
(28:08):
are less likely to get colds, and if they do
catch a bug, it will be less severe. Interesting, so
the ripple effect and the last thing in the article,
and this might be the last thing I say on
my podcast. So just one symbol active kindness can create
a Dombinot effect that benefits of There's wow, the benefits
dozens of people. A friendly chat with a neighbor walking
(28:29):
her dog and lift her spirits and help her be
kinder to the barrist at the coffee shop. The worker,
in turn might be kinder to the next customer he serves.
The larger, the larger ties to bind, ties of love,
connection purpose have ripple effects on her health and the
world at large. Harding says, every individual has way more
(28:51):
influence than they like to think that they have. Your
choices don't have. Your choices don't just impact the perfect
of things across from you. They also impact that person's
friends and family. It's likely it's like a lovely ripple
kind of effect. So copyright the Nation's Health American Public
