So happy when I see positive psychology being included not only in the how, but directly in the what of health promotion! It’s such a natural fit, but many either fail to see it, or are too scared to move away from the more traditional approaches. Great post, Dean! Hope many read it and give it a shot.

Over the years we have held “random acts of kindness” days, weeks, and sometimes months. They have a deep meaning because of our value of caring.

Several weeks ago I was at a CDC event with Dee Edington, and he and I were addressing “leadership”. Dee did what he has so often done for this field made a statement that made us all stop and reflect deeply. Dee said, “we have to move past a culture of health, and consider how we create and sustain cultures of caring.” A culture where employees take responsibility for caring for themselves and their families, where teams support / care for each other, and the organization has a value of caring and sets up an environment where the easy choice is the caring choice. Kindness is one of the blossoms in a caring culture.
