@amiablePeace77 How can mindfulness help us to show kindness and acceptance towards other people?
The first way we can show kindness is by not reacting with destructive emotions. The next way is to be sensitive to the person and what they need to be happy as much as we are able without sacrificing ourselves.

I like your approach about being sensitive to what a person needs without sacrificing ourselves. Often, there is a lot we can do and sometimes it's just about making them feel heard.

Mindfulness helps me be aware of my own feelings. Awareness of my feelings means that I can chose on which feeling I want to base my interaction with another person. If I'm feeling kind, I'm more likely to be kind. If I am feeling unkind, I can chose not to interact at that moment.

Mindfulness can help us check our emotions and internal reactions.
@LovingPeacefulHeart I agree and see them before we react so we can choose how to react to others.
@soulsings See them as God does. Love them as God does.
@LovingPeacefulHeart I try to see everyone with equanimity but it is a work in progress. Everyone wanst happiness and to be free of suffering.
