This is the time of year that reminds us to be grateful, kind and spend time with the people we love. To celebrate, I have decided to re-release a conversation that took place on this podcast almost 6 years ago now with the wonderful David Hamilton.
David is a scientist, researcher and one of the world's leading experts in the science of kindness. He is also the author of multiple bestselling books including Why Kindness Is Good For You and How Your Mind Can Heal Your Body.
This conversation was actually recorded all the way back in February 2020, one month before the start of COVID. But, as with most of the conversations on my podcast, the content within it is timeless and just as relevant today as it was when we actually recorded it.
In our conversation, we explore many different themes including:
<ul>
 <li>How empathy and kindness can impact various markers of our health, including the functioning of our immune systems and our cardiovascular health</li>
 <li>Why David calls oxytocin the ‘kindness hormone’</li>
 <li>How exactly we can use visualisation to improve the quality of our lives,</li>
 <li>The science of the placebo effect</li>
 <li>The importance of connection and empathy in healthcare </li>
 <li>And the phenomenal ripple effect of kindness, whereby one act of kindness can lead to one hundred and twenty-five more.</li>
</ul>
David is such a wonderful human being who is doing his very best to help create a kinder and more compassionate world.
I think this conversation is perfect for the current time of year and I hope that it serves as a gentle reminder that being kind is not only good for the world around us, it’s good for ourselves as well…….
