Random Acts of Kindness Day seeks to encourage kindness within society. On September 1, New Zealand celebrates this holiday, which was established in 2005. From businesses and schools to churches and individuals planning to do something randomly kind for someone else on September 1st, we have been raising the kindness temperature in NZ for many years and now, “random acts of kindness” are part of our every day vernacular and on our annual calendars.
Random Acts of Kindness have probably never been more important, yet have never been harder to do, than when the city is in a lockdown.
Engaging in acts of kindness produces endorphins, the brain's natural painkiller! Perpetually kind people have 23% less cortisol (the stress hormone) and age two times slower than the average population! Observing the positive impact of giving on the lives of others can elicit contagious feelings of joy.
