All it takes is a kind gesture to change someone’s day. From paying it forward in line at a cafe to giving flowers to a neighbour ‘just because’ - this month we’re encouraging our members and supporters to make New Zealand a better place one random act of kindness at a time.

The options for doing so are endless! Being kind doesn’t have to cost a thing, after all a smile is free. For those who want to go the extra mile, here’s some other ideas: Buy extra kai at the grocery store to donate to a food bank, build a free community library for your street, bring treats into work for colleagues, send an encouraging text to someone who needs it, let a car into the traffic ahead of you, take a gift over to new neighbours and introduce yourself, write positive messages in chalk on sidewalks around your neighbourhood, or surprise loved ones with a visit.
This month’s theme also coincides with Random Acts of Kindness Day (New Zealand) which is coming up on September 1st.
Let us know how you’re spreading kindness in your community by tagging us in your posts + using the following hashtag so we can see what you get up to:

“I am 83 living alone. My neighbours Grant and Annette Phillips were wonderful during the lockdown, getting my shopping and taking me to the dentist when I broke my dentures and had no way of getting them mended. When I needed help in an emergency they were there for me reattaching the connections under my bed which I could not get to.They have taken me to doctors appointments and helped when I needed help in the house after a fall and when my Medic Alarm has been activated.”

It's my way of making advice affordable and manageable for all.
If every day is a food struggle, or you've long since given up trying to make changes because it is too hard or too upsetting, then this is the program for you.
1. The commitment is only to 15-30 minutes a week. Yes, that's it. Even in a crazy schedule it's not even a full episode of your favourite TV show.
2. There will be many parts of the program that are suitable for all families, even those where issues are very extreme, or you have the world’s most food-stubborn child (I meet a LOT of those). It will be helpful whatever your situation.
3. The program is tiny, bite-sized actions that will slot into family routines. Very little additional energy required!
4. If you’ve tried everything and nothing works: I get that, and it’s true for many of the families we work with, and yet we can still make progress.
5. Most of what we do will not be difficult for anyone and much of what we do will be a positive for your child. I know this from running programs every week. Children love a lot of the strategies we put into place. Rather than thinking of it as a big change, think of it as new, fun ways to approach things.
6. This is truly the BEST deal you will ever get. $ 12.00 per week is a very small amount to help resolve such a huge stress. You will also “get that money back” very quickly once you have a child eating more confidently.
7. I think it’s useful to reflect on how long eating has been a challenge. If it’s been more than a year, I would say the time is definitely now 😊
8. If you don’t feel it’s a fit for your family you can drop out at any time. The commitment is only from month to month. Very little to lose and very much to gain!!
As I know what will be in the program, I also know how valuable it is and how much you can gain from it. If you have questions, feel free to pm me.
If you’re sitting on the fence, honestly, don’t. Take the risk!
