Dr Hamilton's inspiring book shows you how.|A beautiful, heart-opening reminder of the importance of kindness at every level.|I have always felt that kindness is love made visible. As this encouraging book from David Hamilton points out, it also slows ageing, improves heart health and is kind of contagious as well!|I LOVE David Hamilton. And anyone (even if it was Darth Vader) who writes about kindness gets my endorsement, my kudos, and my first-born child. Just kidding about the first-born child, but I do want to encourage anyone who might listen to me (the three of you) to GET THIS BOOK! And be kind. Always. And forever.|This book is an act of kindness! It's packed full of practical, inspirational and scientifically proven techniques for how to bring more kindness into our lives, and it makes you want to go and be kind!|This is the book for you if you've ever wished for an easier life. David has a way of making the complex very simple and profound obvious. I had so many aha moments while reading this book and I'm absolutely sure you will too. Do yourself the greatest kindness and open these pages as you open your mind, while you allow David to gently open your heart to a whole world of possibilities and the life you truly deserve.|If you think this is a whimsical book on kindness, please think again. David Hamilton wouldn't create a book of sugar-coated fluff, even though he's an expert on placebos! No one on this planet has researched the mind-body connection in the way David has. He lives it and he embodies it! His last book, I Heart Me, took us on a journey of 'Self-love'; this book is about 'Social-love' and the brilliant side effects kindness has on our own wellbeing. David shows you that kindness is far from being whimsical - it's powerful. It will improve your life and your world.|Kindness is an electrical spark of life that runs through all kingdoms and has a reciprocal action when shown to others. David has a remarkable capacity to write from the heart, from his own experiences, which, when combined with scientific evidence, makes this book truly unique. As science shows, physical changes occur in the brain when kindness is expressed. David explains how this kindness can be used to overcome stress, anxiety and depression, and strengthening the heart. In my opinion, this book would make a fascinating and enlightening read for all ages. I found it a real treasure of insight and practical application.|This book had a powerful effect on my body, mind and heart. As I kept on reading it, each cell in my body was lighting up with warmth, joy and happiness. This delightful book will transform millions of lives.|Dr David Hamilton possesses the rare talent of being able to make complex science easy for anyone to understand.

In the context of today's global culture this is a much-needed, brilliant, unique and potentially life-changing read. Using Kindness as the alchemist, everyone can glean a nugget of gold from this book.|This is a rare book. I've spent 20 years trying to connect the 'individual' with the 'company'. I have tried every talent management technique under the sun. The Five Side Effects of Kindness connects the dots. If you place kindness and compassion as the heart of what you do, you will create a ripple effect that will benefit the 'individual' and the 'company' in equal measure. This is a book you can use to embrace, as David calls it, 'the spirit of kindness', a scientifically proven phenomenon that can make a real difference to your health and happiness, and to those who are touched by such kindness. It is a truly inspirational and uplifting book. I thoroughly recommend it at all levels.|David Hamilton is not only a man with a vision for all mankind, but uniquely has the scientific background to deliver his message with great credibility and lucidity.
