Emotional awareness is something that many of us lack. Our ability to be aware of our emotions is imperative for learning how to manage them in a healthy way. In this episode, we provide practical tools to add more emotional awareness to your life.

Transformation Tip: “If you are tuned out of your own emotions, you will be poor at reading them in other people.” - Daniel Goleman

Being in touch with your emotions does not mean you’re weak.

How to become more emotionally aware:

• Name it. Identifying your emotions has a powerful effect on your ability to manage them.
• Don’t pass judgment. Your emotions are not good or bad - they are just emotions.
• Notice how your emotions affect you physically.
• Know who and what triggers you. What is being devalued that you value? Trauma from your past?
• Be aware of your moods. Moods are transient.

Transformation Application: This week when you are experiencing a strong emotion, write it down, and describe how you feel physically.
