Yes, research shows it’s possible! with actively choosing new ways to think, new ways to behave, and new environments that best suit your emotional style. We can change how the brain responds to emotional stimuli with researched strategies that include:
-
- Find out what your “hot buttons” are – what triggers your negative emotions.
- Observe your emotions in the moment, without labeling good or bad.
- Investigate emotions by asking yourself questions like, “Why do I feel this way?” or “What are my emotions trying to tell me?” Sometimes there is a logic and pattern of our emotions than we can learn from and improve.
- Practice responding to emotions in new and constructive ways (for example, dancing, writing, or painting).
I work successfully with clients and groups to do this with Peak Performance Success and Life Coaching that may include stress and anger management, guided meditation and the modality EFT – Emotional Freedom Techniques, tapping – that speed up this process!
