Revolutionary Simple Acts of Kindness

What if every day you practiced a simple act of kindness?

How would it change your life? How might it change you?

Kindness is contagious. Kindness stirs compassion in your heart and stimulates loving sensations. Kindness can have far-reaching implications.

Today, I am suggesting an experiment to demonstrate the power of Light over darkness, Love over hate and Kindness over cruelty.

Today, I am suggesting that you make the conscious choice to make this world a better place by the deliberate practice of service.

Today, I am inviting you to join a worldwide experiment with kindness.

People everywhere are struggling with fear in the world as threats of nuclear annihilation fill the news airways. It is common to feel powerless and frustrated as these issues are outside of your sphere of influence.

You cannot change the behavior of world leaders. I believe you can, however, change your behavior and your life in a way that will make a difference.

I am suggesting that you experiment with a simple act of kindness.

I am suggesting that you choose to bring kindness into the world and then, I am inviting you to observe how powerful you are as you bring about changes in the world around you.

I invite you to share your observations about the difference kindness makes.

I encourage you to become an agent of transformation in the world through your simple acts of kindness. I urge you to watch and observe the effect of your kindness has on the world around you. I charge you to find the effect your kindness has in your own life.

I am encouraging you to spread your kindness in the world by consciously doing or saying something that is kind to someone else who you know only casually.

It may be a kind and encouraging comment on Social Media. It has to be sincere, but it can be concise. It can be a casual compliment to a stranger on the street. It need not take more than a few seconds of time.

When you act with kindness, each time you do something kind, stop for a second and take a deep breath. You might want to visualize that the energy that stimulated your act of kindness is going out from your heart to the world as a whole. You could imagine the kindness starting a wave of love and compassion that will stimulate others to be kind.

When you offer your act of kindness, imagine your Light traveling out to touch the life of another to in some unknown way make their life better. Your moment of thought and compassion sets a dynamic force in motion, in you, and toward the other person.

No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.
– Aesop

Then, pay attention to how you feel. Notice how your random acts of kindness are affecting your mood and your sense of well-being. Observe its impact on any stress in your life.

This simple act of kindness aligns you with your Higher Self (your Soul). It is an act of service that energetically connects you with the men and women of goodwill all around the world.

It can become a meditative act because by aligning with your higher self, and the forces of goodness, love, and compassion you are choosing to be a force for good on the planet. You are building and creating Right Relations.

My hypothesis that I am suggesting with this experiment is to prove that by your kindness you are increasing your sense of personal happiness. You are healing the pain of separateness and alienation that is so much a part of our modern world and society.

Of course, treating your loved ones, friends and family with kindness is always recommended, however; the experiment I am suggesting is to practice kindness to those with whom you have no or only a loose association.

I am suggesting that you try this experiment between now and the end of the month. If you choose to participate in this little experiment, I would like to invite you to join my Consciousness Community and share your experiences with this experiment in the comments below.

By engaging in simple acts of kindness, you are taking power to transform your world into your own hands. You are being and becoming an active force for good. You are an agent of Light.

With each kind comment, you make and each kind gesture you perform, no matter how small or insignificant it may seem, you are making a revolutionary difference in your own life, in your community, in your world, to serve Love.

When you are open to Love, and when you demonstrate it in acts of kindness, compassion fills your heart.

When you look at others through the eyes of compassion, their faults and their failures become less annoying and most significantly less disruptive to your sense of peace and personal happiness.

When you consider what act of kindness you can share with someone, you are activating in your heart and mind the transforming power of love and compassion. Kindness is a way that in an authentic and tangible sense you are receiving by giving.
– Genevieve Gerard

One of the most beneficial and empowering parts of practicing kindness is that by doing so, you strengthen and refine your ability to Love unconditionally. You are empowering your ability to understand one another and forgive the foibles and failures of humanity.

And, also by being kind to others, you activate kindness and compassion for yourself. Being kind and compassion to yourself, being patient and forgiving of your faults can have a life-transforming advantage.

It is in this which the simple acts of kindness can serve to not only make the world a better place but also make your life more successful and happy.

Please share your experiences with this little experiment in consciousness. Please share this post with anyone you feel would find the empowerment and life transformation helpful.

Together we have the power to make life a little easier for others, and by doing so, for ourselves. There is no cost to kindness. There is no harm in compassion. It is free and freely given.

So, I ask you to try a simple act of kindness. Like the old bumper sticker used to say “Practice random acts of kindness.” You never know when your kindness can provide hope, comfort, and strength to someone who has lost their way.

Let your kindness be a living example of Love in action. Let your kindness be a demonstration of your gratitude and faithfulness. Spread your Light with Love and kindness wherever you go as an act of service and support of others.

Namaste,

Genevieve

Open Yourself To Being Guided By Kindness

Open Yourself To Being Guided By Kindness

A standard can be applied to life’s many little decisions that can help you choose what is right and help you create a better world.

That is to let kindness be your guide.

It does not matter if others believe what you believe; you can be a teacher of your truth, without words, by simple acts of kindness.

Kindness demonstrates and teaches more than your words ever can. As the adage simply states, “Action speaks louder than words.”

Kindness is a gateway to compassion.
Compassion is a gateway to Love.
– Genevieve Gerard

For most, to live a spiritual life, to follow the teachings of Christ, can be a challenge as circumstances and events present themselves.

Anger, frustration and judging others as wrong or lacking in some way, are all too easy to do. Deep in your heart and Soul you know that is not what Jesus would have done. His teachings speak of forgiving many times, yet this may seem to be too hard to do. To respond with kindness is somehow more achievable.

Therefore, I suggest simply allowing the concept of kindness to be your guide.

Kindness in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates profoundness. Kindness in giving creates love.
– Lao Tzu

Somehow, kindness is a simpler standard to achieve in your relationships with others. It can be communicated in a smile or a random compliment to a complete stranger. That simple act, even a random act of kindness, can have a profound influence on someone else’s life.

Often it costs you nothing to give. Frequently, it does not require planning or forethought. Kindness can provide hope to another that has become hopeless, or encouragement to someone who is lonely or discouraged.

A kind word and a kind act most often cost you nothing. It is a small way that you can make the world a better place.

None of us can ever know the secret burdens in the lives of others. However, when we practice kindness we can have an impact and influence to ease their way. Even though we may never know the result of our little gesture of goodwill, at times it may have a dramatic and transforming effect.

No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.
– Aesop

Kindness is a cornerstone of right human relations that builds and grows as it moves from one person to the next. It ignites energy that can then be passed along.

Kindness requires no belief system. It is a way to demonstrate your love and your joy with total strangers. Although you may never know the influence a kind word has in someone’s life, it is a powerful way to share the spiritual blessings you have received. It is a way that you can be an instrument of grace and compassion in the world.

My religion is very simple. My religion is kindness.
– Dalai Lama

When you consider how you can emulate the lives of the great spiritual teachers of the world, it is easy to feel that they are so far beyond you that you have no chance. You know your limitations. Kindness is so simple and so easy that it is a way that you can be a spark of Divine Light and an emissary of Divine Love as you walk through your daily Life.

When you let kindness be your guide, many of the spiritual teachings are fulfilled. It does not require deep understanding of theology or philosophy to practice kindness, yet it has a powerful influence.

Kindness is a way to demonstrate the qualities of Love and grace for others. The wonderful thing about kindness is that it becomes contagious and when it becomes a habit blesses your life in return.

A kind act or a kind deed brings Light into an environment. It helps dispel sorrow. It loosens the bonds of fear. And amazingly this happens spontaneously.

Kindness brings a response in others that emerges naturally.

Think about a time you may have been feeling a little down or insecure and a complete stranger offered you a very simple compliment. Something said to you as simple as remarking “you have such beautiful eyes.” Did that random comment by a stranger not give you a gift of support and encouragement?

Kindness is a way to pass that good feeling on.

I encourage you to try an experiment of noticing the lives of strangers around you as you engage in a practice of random acts of kindness this week. Observe the way that it makes you feel to be kind to others. Notice how their body language might change after your act of kindness.

Most of all, notice how the generosity of a kind word or kind act makes you feel. For me, it is happier, more relaxed and less isolated in the world.

It is by giving we receive. Through kindness, you can be the change in the world that you wish to see. Remember to be guided by kindness, practice acts of courtesy, good will, graciousness, understanding, and tenderness.

Namaste,

Genevieve
