You can show others general kindness by being helpful, complimenting them, or even just choosing not to say unkind things (like gossip). Maggie

I think once people see how positively Ahimsa can affect someone, they would want to try it to. No one wants to be surrounded by negativity, and Ahimsa can help get rid of negative influences. Maddie

Negativity spreads easily, and there's not much you can do when it's already there. This makes it harder to practice ahimsa sometimes. It's especially hard to be kind towards those who are unkind to you.

I think competition is the main source of violence in today's world. Whether that means competing in beauty standards, politics, sports, etc. Reducing the mindset that you are constantly trying to win has helped me avoid violence and emotional outbursts.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel that some people forget to take time to take care of themself and make sure they get enough sleep and eat right so it's hard to practice ahimsa when you arent doing these things.

It today's society I just think everyone can get so mad over the little things since it has become such an universal habit. Plus, today a lot more people are stressed, anxious, and struggling with other issues, so non-violence can be hard to accomplish. -Maddie

Because if I am always giving out bad energy, more times than not, that is what I will receive from others. Using this practice I could balance myself, which in turn will slowly start to balance others around me.

I think it´s hard because our society is built on violence. That is why it is even seen as controversial to discuss this. (Even when it shouldn´t be.) Our society SHOULD be peaceful, but to have peace you need agreements. The whole world lives off of fighting, money, ego, and etc. Therefore, there will no be society without violence.

I think today it hard to practice non violence today because of social media. Social media just causes conflict, insecurities, and so much more.
