Buchzusammenfassung
Paul Ekman is a consulting psychology expert for police departments and security offices. He’s also helped Pixar Studios bring animated characters to life by availing them of his expertise on emotions and how they’re revealed through facial expression.
The primary message in this book is the importance of being able to interpret facial expressions and perceive the emotions that people are experiencing. This skill is not only valuable for detecting deception and identifying insincere smiles, but more importantly, it allows for a greater sense of empathy by recognizing the common emotions that unite us all.
Practical advice:
Feel comfortable expressing your emotions.
If you have suppressed your sadness or anger in the past because of a fear of being vulnerable, try to reconnect with those feelings in order to establish a healthier relationship with your emotions. To assist you in this process, stand in front of a mirror and replicate the facial expressions described in the book. As you become more skilled at identifying the correct expressions, you will develop a stronger connection to your emotions and overcome the harmful habit of bottling them up.
