Chicken Soup for the Soul with Amy Newmark

Hey, it’s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul, and today we’re talking about Christmas. Now you may think it’s all gotten too commercial and it’s all about getting gifts, but that’s not what see at Chicken Soup for the Soul. We see a focus on families getting together, and people enjoying the giving way more than the receiving, and people looking out for others in their communities. And that extends all the way down to the kids, who demonstrate all the attributes you’d want to see as far as generosity and compassion are concerned. So today I’m going to share a couple of stories about the natural generosity of kids at Christmastime, from our bestselling Christmas book, Chicken Soup for the Soul: The Magic of Christmas.

Hey, it’s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul and today I want to share six stories from our book about clever, curious, caring cats and talk about the effects cats have on our lives. Because they do have an impact. Somehow, they brighten our days, act as our therapists, and become our best friends—without saying a word. They’re surprisingly clever, comically curious, and truly caring, too. They show us how to live in the moment, find our inner strength, and be the best versions of our human selves. If we rescued them, from a shelter or our back yards, they rescue us back. And their playfulness and antics make us smile, even on our darkest days.
