10 Instagram Pages To Follow For a Kinder Feed
We spend so much time on social media, but how much of the content you’re consuming is kind?
Kindness breeds kindness, so the more we feed our innate human nature to be kind, the more aware we become of kindness around us. Recognising and surrounding ourselves with kindness shines a light on why kindness is so important in building a healthy life for yourself and a harmonious society, so we’ve put together a list of 10 Instagram pages everyone should follow to make the world a kinder place.
