Tuesday 15th June, 7pm - Friends' Meeting House, Oxford 
| Dr David Hamilton has been in great demand for his new book, as it gives solid scientific evidence that kindness is good for your health. Not only do you help others, but it is not possible to not benefit from kindness yourself. |
What you’ll gain from this evening You'll learn the brand new scientific evidence of how kindness, compassion, and gratitude impact your mental and emotional health and can make you happier. You'll also learn how kindness produces a hormone in the brain that actually impacts the lining of your arteries in a very powerful and positive way, actually offering substantial protection from heart disease, even countering much of the effects of poor diet and lifestyle. You'll also learn how kindness and compassion counteract inflammation in the body, which is now believed by scientists to be at primary cause of a number of serious diseases (including heart disease, cancer, and Alzheimer's) and to play a role in almost all serious diseases. You'll also learn how we are actually genetically wired to be kind. This is why kindness is good for you. The human body, which has evolved over millions of years, is actually at it's healthiest when we are kind to each other. David will be selling and signing copies of the book at this evening.
