#93: 4 (no, 5!) Things I Wish I'd Known about Emotions Sooner
If you're on a mission to understand yourself better, so you can both have more self-compassion and be more equipped to handle the heavy machinery that is YOU, this episode is spot on.
I've pinpointed 5 things I've learned about emotions over the course of my 6+ years Coaching, during which there's constant ongoing education and training.
These are 5 things I actually wish I'd known sooner — because of the impact they've had on aforementioned self-compassion, -understanding and -direction.
Whatever your emotional literacy or level of awareness, I'm positive you'll hear something you need to hear today!
We explore:
- Where emotions come from
- How your brain processes emotions (heads up — this is wild)
- The reasons emotions happen (aka the data you can find in them)
- Their less-than-90-second chemical lifespan
- Why it's good to know your "window of tolerance" for emotions
