Self-criticism is often our default setting. But we can have a more gracious posture toward ourselves. We can practice disciplines of self-kindness. Editor and spiritual director Cindy Bunch calls us to self-care through greater compassion for ourselves. She helps us pay attention to the frustrations that bug us in order to identify negative thinking about ourselves or others. As we do so, we can discern what we need to let go. This allows us to lean into the things that bring us joy. Each chapter is filled with spiritual practices and creative exercises for reflection and celebration.

Being kind is something most of us do when it's easy and when it suits us. Being kind when we don't feel like it, or when all of our buttons are being pushed, is hard. But that's also when it's most needed; that's when it can defuse anger and even violence, when it can restore civility in our personal and virtual interactions. Kindness has the power to profoundly change our relationships with other people and with ourselves. It can, in fact, change the world. In A Year of Living Kindly, Donna Cameron shares her experience committing to 365 days of practicing kindness.

She outlines the three archetypes of failure - simple, complex, and intelligent - before revealing how to minimise the consequences of the bad failures and maximise the potential of the good.

"We need to re-learn the essential skill of being genuinely nurturing and supportive toward ourselves."

Es ist ein beunruhigender Trend unserer Zeit: Kinder und Jugendliche orientieren sich zunehmend an Gleichaltrigen – an ihren Werten, ihrer Identität und ihren Verhaltensregeln. Diese „Peer-Orientierung“ untergräbt den Familienzusammenhalt, beeinträchtigt die gesunde Entwicklung und fördert eine feindselige und sexualisierte Jugendkultur.
