Episode 12: The Importance of Compliments that don't involve Appearance
Compliments, we all love to hear them right? But have you thought about how giving compliments that are related to someone’s appearance may make them feel uncomfortable?
Giving compliments that are directed at how someone looks may cause them to believe that their worth is based on how they look on the outside, especially for younger folks!
Instead of complimenting someone on their appearance, try complimenting on their character, personality, skills and achievements instead!
In this episode, I discuss:
- Why appearance-based compliments may be hurtful or uncomfortable
- How complimenting others can boost your own emotional wellness
- Ways that we can give compliments that will shift our focus from physical traits to inner qualities and characteristics
