## About This Meditation

It’s a sad reality, but so many of us find it really hard to accept compliments, no matter how sincere and genuine they may be.

We blush, stammer, splutter, and do what we can to deflect or even reject the compliment.

Which is not very nice for us, nor for the giver of the gift of the compliment!

In this 5 minute meditation, released on [2022’s National Compliment Day](https://nationaltoday.com/national-compliment-day/)
, we examine our feelings upon receiving a compliment, and explore how we can better enjoy accepting them – give it a go, and see if your feelings toward receiving compliments shifts.
