I stumbled upon this compact yet powerful tool for understanding emotions.
Seeking the right words to articulate your emotions?
Classifying your feelings can shift how you view them. The clearer you are about your emotions, the more you can alleviate their physical effects, like stress and anxiety.
It simplifies the process of determining your needs and actions. Gain better control. Enhancing emotional clarity and self-awareness helps us regulate our emotions and diminish stress.
I have seen an important impact on my Son by working with this. He only knew 2 emotions : happy(95pct of the time), unhappy (5pct of the time). His psychologist asked him to describe his day and to define the emotions he experienced. By doing this exercise regularly, he evolved from “i m sad but i don’t know why” to a boy being quite articulate about his feelings. Things no longer escalate as he detects and appoints the emotions faster.
