Global Cooling, yes that is "Cooling."

Date: July 27, 2009

Heard we’re facing "Global Cooling."

Shocked? me, too. Especially with all the hype on global warming.

Will tell you about it in a moment, but first –

Read a terrific new book called,
The Power of Kindness: The Unexpected Benefits of Leading a Compassionate Life. [Link to get this book is posted at the bottom of t his page.]

It’s by Piero Ferrucci. Book has a foreword by H. H. The Dalai Lama, who, as you already know is an avid promoter of human values such as: kindness, compassion, forgiveness, and self-discipline.

The Power of Kindness: The Unexpected Benefits of Leading a Compassionate Life is another work of genius.

It’s about being happier and making those around us happier, too.

Book reminds me of some of the core values that I’ve developed for my company,

These values include: service, joy, generosity, warmth, and honesty.

Principles in the book are pure goodness and its benefits.

For example, Ferrucci (2009) explains how patients who are treated with empathy heal a lot sooner (p. 9) and how elderly who receive warm, kind touch suffer less and are in a better mood (p. 27). There are magical healing outcomes from pure kindness. Being kind is a core skill needed to have a therapeutic relationship with a patient.

My favorite part of the whole book is where Ferrucci argues that we’re suffering from: “Global Cooling.”

Ice cold.

Heartless.

People are not as caring as they once were.

Society is becoming colder.

Now you’re in a wonderful place where you can envision how you wish to the world should be.

From your vision, you can work backward to figure out the steps needed to create it.

The benefits for being a warm, kind-hearted person is brought to life in the most interesting way by Piero Ferrucci.

He says that the world is suffering from “Global Cooling.”

As a result of Ferrucci’s announcement, people are able to re-think kindness to go on and create a warmer, kinder world.

So – if the world is becoming “cooler,” how would you warm it up a bit? I imagine that being in the helping profession; you'd be a key person to start the process.

What would your vision look like?

Kind regards, Danny

P.S. Here's my kind gift for you:

I have compassion for our profession (recreational therapy) and I want to help train and educate other recreational therapists. I’m humble -- I don’t know it all, but here is something I do know, kindness is a necessity for human service professionals. You can get continuing education credits for reading Ferrucci's book. It’s the basis of a new course on kindness for you. For more information, go here:
