The Kindness Advantage is exactly what we need more of right now. With empowering examples and science-based truths, Dale and Amanda share what it takes to foster kindness, empathy, compassion, and heart in our families. Highly recommended!
A moving, profound story about the love between mothers and daughter and what they share, even after death. You definitely don’t have to have even stepped foot in a yoga studio to appreciate this story. It’s the kind of book that stays with you long after you finish and make you want to hold the people you love even closer.

The Kindness Advantage is the perfect book. Building on scientific evidence about developing aspects of kindness, such as empathy, it gives clear, practical advice to parents and suggests engaging activities and stories for children.
