Strengths Prism Part 2

'Strengths & Balance'

(Overuse - Underuse)

When we engage in dialogue,

A closer look at character strengths can have unexpected powers.

For example, when we look closely at any one strength,

Kindness

we can detect that even a trait like kindness

can turn unhealthy.

Underuse

Overuse

Kindness

When stretched too far, the strength can become people-pleasing.

But, when neglected, it can show up as heartlessness.

Underuse

Overuse

Kindness

Yet overuse and underuse can be balanced

through a simple yet profound shift.

Underuse

Overuse

Kindness

Authenticity

We can release the single focus on one strength

by holding two complementary strengths at once.

For example, in dialogue...

Courage

Humility

FLOW

By flowing between strengths,

we can create balance and grow into our best selves.

Developing Life Skills & Character

"Mindful breathing can ground us

inspired by Thich Nhat Hanh

and help us

to come home to ourselves."
