A LITTLE BIT OF KINDNESS / lifestyle , health

WORLD KINDNESS WEEK


A KINDNESS CHALLENGE

This week is  KINDNESS WEEK.  Something that the world needs now, especially with all the negative news around. So its a nice idea to share . I only read about Kindness week and thought what a great idea.

According to studies done in the states, there is a link to kindness and living a longer life.
Now that sounds very interesting, to imagine that when we are kinder to others  it not only makes them feel good but it also can help us.  The study shows that any small gesture can have a profound effect on a persons mind  it can  lower blood pressure, relief stress .

There are so many ways to show kindness in small ways.  helping someone carry their bags, giving up your seat for an elderly person or young mom,  baking cookies for a sick neighbour, sending a card , or holding the door open for someone. These small things can mean a lot to someone.

I know for myself it does make you feel noticed. I often see young people on the metro sitting well an senior person is left standing.  It makes me think, what a shame .  Or if someone is standing in a grocery line with only few items and your cart is full, to let them go ahead of you.  Simple small
acts like that doesn't cost anything and to me seems like the right thing to do.

A book titled the The Rabbit Effect  by Columbia University doctor Kelli Harding , studied  the effect
of kindness and the results.   It helps your immune system, lowers blood pressure and helps one to live longer.  Clearly all of those facts are a good thing.


So today , this week or month  its a good time to share some kindness with others.


HAVE A GREAT WEEK EVERYONE!!

Keeping Warm - Fashion Style

 POP of COLOR Yes it is something we all want need. Keeping warm in the cold winter months.  One of favorite knit top has been my steady Look. The fact it has a large cowl neck collar that I pull up over my face  when it’s windy outside.  It is comfortable and feels cozy . The color is vibrant on those dull dreary days .  A pop of color is nice to see during the winter  season when mostly black seems to be the color of choice.  The Accessories .  I love to add a few accessories also.  Bracelets add a little interest to the look .  The three sterling silver bangles worn over sleeve looks good  , as well as the multi twist bracelet.  Ps  The photo does not show the true color .  It’s a very vibrant blue shade . Looks dull .  After a few retakes no change.  Camera issues. 

DRESS. It up//fashion style

DRess It Up A simple grey knit top  is something I had been looking for sometime. Grey is not usually my pick,  but I thought time to try some other neutral shade.  The top is tunic style and loose fitting . Definitely a comfort piece.  I decided to add some different accessories to it.  This shiny silver piece just a bit of interest to the plain top.  Accessories are really a great way to give an outfit a different look.      Love this multi strand necklace . It suits this knit top, not to delicate but fun and an interesting piece.
