Deep Kindness

A Revolutionary Guide for the Way We Think, Talk, and Act in Kindness

By: Houston Kraft

Narrated by: Houston Kraft

Spread meaningful kindness in your everyday life with this essential guidebook to making the world a kinder, more accepting place.

Practicing kindness is an essential step in helping to repair a world that has grown to be more divisive, lonely, and anxious than ever. But with quotes like “Just be kind” or “Throw kindness around like confetti,” we’ve oversimplified what it takes to actually demonstrate kindness in a world crying out for it.

Deep Kindness pairs anecdotes with actions that can make real change in our own lives, the lives of others, and throughout the world. Diving into the types of kindness the world needs most today, this book takes an honest look at the gap between our belief in kindness and our ability to practice it well—and shows us how to put intention into action. Exploring everything from the empathy gap to the skill of emotional regulation, Deep Kindness is perfect for anyone who believes in a kinder world and recognizes that there is a lot of work to do before we achieve it.

So slow

The book is great with lots of awesome insights and stories and tips but I had to listen at 1.7x because the author speaks so slowly

The Author's Voice is Reason Enough to Buy Audio

This book influenced me to get up and do kind things, and I'm going to. Thank you.

Houston read his book with amazing feeling!

This book made me think deeply about myself as a person, a mom, a friend, a co-worker, a teacher, and a human as I interact with people every day. Wow! Now I need to listen to it again as I apply deep kindness to my own life. I am excited to go on this journey. Houston, thank you for your humor and deeply touching stories that hit home your ideas. You had me laughing and crying. Most importantly, you made me think and take action! Thank you for your action prompts. They are doable. I am excited for the 30 day challenge! Great book and very timely!

What humanity as a whole and I as an individual need.

The work Houston has done over the years is incredibly inspiring. His vulnerability sharing his story in this book is hope giving. If that wasn’t enough some how this book also goes deep into the practical actions we can take to become even just 1% more kind.
We need this book. I needed (still need) this book.
Thanks Houston for your courage and deep kindness.

Incredible & Thought Provoking

So much to digest. I'm going to have to listen quite a few more times to begin to put better into practice living kind.

I especially enjoyed hearing the author read this book. Only he would be able to bring proper inflection to really shine light on the ideas he is trying to convey.
