Even if you don’t live near a park, you can still bring a little extra dose of nature to your home and reap the mental health benefits. Follow the link to see expert advice on how to soothe your soul with nature. |

| Even when we know people’s names, why do we go for days without using them? By using someone’s name, you help them feel seen and acknowledged — and that’s an act of kindness. According to kindness.org’s research in collaboration with the University of Oxford, doing a kind act increases happiness, well-being, trust and compassion. And it can have the same powerful effect on those who receive the act. Try it, and put a smile on both your faces. |
