If you can be anything, be kind.
It’s easy to get caught up in our own lives; balancing work, relationships, social connections, health and all kinds of responsibilities – but what would this world look like if we all made a little more effort to create kindness; for ourselves, for the earth and for the people and places around us?
You could win your stay at Oceanstone for starters.
Join us this Month for the Oceanstone Kindness Challenge. Add the below challenge graphic to your instagram stories and cross things off as you complete them. (and don’t forget to tag us!)
Bonus points if you capture photos or videos of the acts!
- STEP ONE : Save our bingo image to your Instagram stories.
- STEP TWO: Check things off as you complete the bingo card.
- STEP THREE: Tag us in your photos and videos of you filling out the bingo card!
We’ll be sharing our kindness at he end of the month; we’ll perform an act of kindness to one lucky participant and gift them a 1-night stay at Oceanstone.
“No act of kindness, no matter how small is ever wasted” — Aesop
BE KIND TO THE PLANET
Pick up trash from the beach
Our oceans are in trouble, and every bit helps. Bonus points if you organize a full beach cleanup!
Go plastic free for a week!
Show us what steps you’re taking to go trash free. It’s harder than it looks.
Choose Sustainable seafood
Choosing the right seafood can greatly help our oceans. By the way, lobster is one of the recommended alternatives.
KIND INTERACTIONS
Give a gift, just because!
You don’t need a holiday or birthday to show someone you care. Our favorite gift is the gift of experience.
Hold the door open for somebody.
Tried, true, and easy to do. Sometimes the simplest ways to show kindness are the best.
SELF KINDNESS
Relax by the ocean
What can we say? We love the sea, and it helps to center us.
Discover something new at home
Be a tourist in your own neighborhood, community or province! Find those great places that you haven’t discovered yet!
Take time for a nice breakfast
Slow down and enjoy! Breakfast is the most important meal of the day! Whether you’re doing something home-cooked, or enjoying a brunch at Rhubarb, you’ll feel better all day!
RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS
Donate unwanted toys or clothing
Everyone has something they don’t need, that someone else could use. Sometimes clearing out our old things can be a self-kindness too!
Shop or eat at a locally owned business
Show community support by visiting a small locally owned businesses or restaurant and help them grow!
Volunteer
Help is always needed. Choose a cause you are passionate about and donate your most valuable asset – your time!
