A FREE WORKSHOP ABOUT EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE, THE PANDEMIC, AND UNCERTAINTY: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/144249639555
You don't need me to tell you that this is a wild, unpredictable and scary time.
But while we can't always change what's happening around us, there are tools and skills that we can learn to help us navigate uncertainty.
Emotional Intelligence (or EQ) has been shown to be every bit as important (or more so) than traditional IQ in terms of predicting people's overall happiness in life, the quality of their relationships, and their reactions to stress. But what is EQ, and how can you 'master' it?
EQ simply refers to how well we understand and know ourselves, our physiological/emotional reactions, and how well we are able to navigate our feelings. It is NOT a magic pill or a way to switch off unpleasant feelings - but understanding how your brain and body work and respond to stress can be a powerful tool for navigating the stormy seas of a time like this, rather than letting the waves pull you under. I like to look at it as becoming a good captain of your "ship"... even if you can't stop the storm.
Come and join me for an hour to discuss what EQ is and how we can start to unlock our Emotional Intelligence in order to navigate tough situations, including, perhaps, the pandemic.
