Emotional reactivity. If you’re human, you wrestle with this ass biter on a daily basis because here’s the thing. Feeling is one of the glorious parts of being human.
We get hurt.
We fly off the handle.
We blame.
We say regrettable words we wish like hell we could take back.
We ruminate on the past and freak ourselves out about a future that doesn’t exist.
These reactions lead us to “oh shit” moments that toss us into a swirl of misunderstanding, emotional distance, mistrust, unfortunate blow-ups, and the aftermath that follows.
This week, we’re dipping into emotional reactivity 101 and exploring how to show up mindfully, more consistently, as our perfectly imperfect human selves.
We explore the life changing effects of two badass cognitive skills: emotional regulation and mindfulness.
And, I’m sharing two simple, powerful AF practices I’ve created and field tested that will help you develop your emotional regulation muscle, flex it like a queen, and meet every moment of every day with copious amounts of calm, cool, clarity.
I’m extending heartfelt gratitude to the musical talent of @Requisit for their original sound tracks featured on this podcast. Check out more of their amazing music on Open Spotify.
