It’s safe to say that Christmas will be a little different this year, but one thing that has no restrictions is kindness.
And if you’re looking for inspiration when it comes to kind actions during the festive season, Action for Happiness’ new December Merit Calendar can help.
The charity, which aims to build a happier, more caring society, released the calendar to encourage us to « look beyond our differences and help one another ». .
The calendar can be downloaded and printed out free of charge and is in the form of a traditional Advent calendar. Instead of a present for every day from 1. until 24. Containing December, each date offers a suggestion for an act of kindness.
Suggestions range from nice things to do for your loved ones, such as:. B.. « Turn off digital devices and really listen to people » and « Let someone know how much you appreciate them and why » to actions that can help the wider community, including « Buy locally and support. » independent stores near you « and » buy an additional item and donate to a local food bank « . .
There are even suggestions that can make a difference on a global level, such as:. B.. « Pick up garbage or do something for nature » and « be kind to the planet ». Eat less meat and use less energy. « .
And of course, Action for Happiness hasn’t forgotten the importance of self-goodness. One of the suggestions asks us to « treat everyone with kindness today, including yourself! »
