People with greater certainty about their feelings are better pilots of their lives and have a surer sense about how they feel about personal decisions. The development of emotional intelligence, the capacity for engaging in mature emotional expression, resilience during stressful situations, taking risks in pursuit of your relationship, work and social needs are all ways to take care of your mind. Challenging self limiting beliefs and automatic patterns of thinking and behaving also keep our minds active, exercised and healthy.
We can increase our emotional development and growth through working on increasing our Emotional Intelligence. This allows us the capacity for recognizing our own feelings and those of others, for motivating ourselves, and for managing emotions well in ourselves and in our relationships.
Emotional Intelligence development is also important at work, 50% of work satisfaction is determined by the relationship a worker has with his/her boss. EI is a prerequisite for effective leadership across borders. It requires a high level of self-mastery and people skills; ability to put yourself into the positions of others.
If you or your corporation is interested in EI testing, coaching or consulting services contact our office at 647.347.3398.
Our Emotional Brain
Do we control our emotions or do they control us? Unlike conscious feelings, emotions originate deep in the brain. For example, the brain can detect danger before we experience symptoms of being afraid.
Creating Emotional Health
Being in good health means more than feeling physically well; it also means feeling mentally well. Today we are more aware of how our mental and physical health affects one another.
Emotional Intelligence
We use Emotional Intelligence testing when working with individuals to assess our clients’ current ability to manage their emotions and to assert themselves.
Relationships & Emotions
Emotions are the building blocks of every relationship in our lives, and the power of those emotions cannot be minimized. Emotions override our thoughts and profoundly influence our behavior - often without our awareness.
