Do you live and breathe “organic, non-toxic, chemical-free?” Want to meet other people who have a common interest in non-toxic living? Find them at the next dinner party that you attend!
Check out our tips for weaving ‘healthy’ into standard conversations, plus 35 healthy conversation starters.
Typical Conversation Starter Made
You can weave the topic of ‘healthy’ into nearly every conversation. Once you start a conversation, the back-and-forth-discussion opens the opportunity for health-related conversation.
Here are a few examples of how to weave ‘healthy’ into conventional conversations along with tips for crafting your conversation authentically:
- “I love your shirt! Where did you get it?”
People love, love, love to be complimented. Even when they do an awkward squirm, deep within, they usually feel good about it. This is an awesome way to start conversations.
If given a compliment on your clothes, mention that you’re wearing GOTS Organic certified clothing or that you found this super affordable place to buy GOTS certified clothing for women, men, and children. Or, if you haven’t done either of these, answer with I’m wearing XYZ, but I am going to start buying GOTS Organic certified clothes this year.
- “What was the best part of your day?”
This may take people a moment to think about and answer. But, when they do, they’ll be so grateful you asked. It’s rare that we think about the best parts of our day and share it with others. Plus, it makes people feel good that you’re asking about their day.
If asked this question (e.g., they answer you and then ask what the best part of YOUR day was), here are a few answers that you can customize to fit your day:
The best part of my day was taking a walk and listening to uplifting music. I ate my organic broccoli and chicken dish, threw on my comfy walking shoes and walked around the neighborhood. It was so refreshing and peaceful.
Or, the best part of my day was buying [insert product] my new air purifier with an activated carbon filter. I’m so excited about it!
- “How do you know the host?”
Take their response and wave healthy into follow-up questions like these:
A: “We go to the gym together.”
Follow-up Q: “No kidding! I’ve been looking to join a gym. Do they use non-toxic cleaners at your gym?”
A: “We work together.”
Follow-up Q: “I saw that there’s an organic grocery store near your work. Have you ever been there?”
