Description
Most believe we feel emotions - but that isn't the case. The brain and the body both don't feel emotions; they only receive two specific inputs. In this podcast, JP will discuss how the brain 'makes' emotions and what that means for our ability to control and manage them. Join us on Facebook in the Last 8% Project, a community offering resources and support in this challenging time, linked here https://www.facebook.com/groups/thelast8project. Music by @nop on CC Mixter, http://beta.ccmixter.org/people/Lancefield. In a very short time, we are working from home, or we have lost our job, or are home schooling our kids, feeling the effects of isolating alone or possibly being with others in cramped quarters.If this isn’t bad enough on its own, we are also facing the virus of fear that comes with uncertainty. Are things going to get worse? Are our loved ones going to be OK? Is it OK to end social distancing now? How long can we keep this up? These strong emotions make it difficult to form an effective response when we face the difficult decisions and conversations in front of us.# Emotional Intelligence # Strategies # Get Disciplined # Get Motivated # Mindfulness # Self-Help
