Emotional Logic
What is Emotional Logic?
We do not experience our emotions in a neat linear fashion. I can feel angry about one situation, guilty about another, shocked about a third and depressed about something else. Our emotions are messengers that attempt to get our attention when there is a violation of our values. Emotional Logic provides a framework to befriend and interpret my emotions. EL is a life skill that equips you to make sense of your inner emotional landscape and enable you to navigate your way forward.
Emotions are useful
Your body cannot send you a WhatsApp. It sends you an emotion. E-motion is energy in motion. If you choose to ignore or suppress the emotion, your body could escalate it to a pain. Where in your body do you regularly experience pain? If your body still does not get your attention, it may become desperate and send you a sickness to get you to stop and listen to yourself. Emotions are physical, and they gear you up to take action, or to take a step back and reflect. Emotions may feel unpleasant, but they have a useful purpose. When you learn to engage with their useful purposes, you can restore movement to life and personal growth.
