Having good emotional health or intelligence as it is often called, is our ability to deal appropriately with situations in life while allowing ourselves to feel each emotion that comes up in any given situation. No emotion is negative, in fact what emotions are, are pieces of energy which have a message for us. When we realise this, we can use this to our benefit.
Antonio Damasio defines emotions as “Energy in motion, e-motion”. We are all made of energy and our emotions are pieces of energy that flow through us when we feel something. Our words carry the energy of our feelings and influence the person they are directed at.
