The Power of a Compliment
WHO IS CARING FOR YOU AS YOU CARE FOR YOUR PERSON? And what do compliments have to do with it?
Self-compassion.
You that it feels good to receive an authentic complement. The world seems a bit softer, brighter, more kind. And when you give a compliment, that happens for others. Research shows that we generally underestimate the power that giving a compliment can have on others, and that we overestimate how uncomfortable compliments make others feel. So, how does that work when we're caring for ourselves?
Join us this month to explore how compliments land oin our system. both receiving them and giving them. We'll unleash the power of self-compassion in the form of self-talk, and discover what complimenting others does for our parasympathetic nervous system. In other words, how it calms and soothes us :)
Each month for our online Embodiment Labs to discover the positive impact of embodied awareness. During these interactive sessions we explore the inseparable connection of body and mind to provide you with practical tools you will use throughout your day. Navigate your challenges with more ease by shifting from head-centric to whole-system awareness.
This a great way to introduce yourself to the unique makeup of your nervous system: how it reacts to the world and what it needs to shift into your inner support system. Having your body “top of mind” enables you to better manage stress, know and care for your health and well being, and communicate well with others.
We call these sessions “Labs” to emphasize our focus on exploration and experimentation. The Labs provide you with skills and tools, not concrete answers . . . Open yourself to curiosity and connection that lead to new ways of getting to know yourself!
