Developing Emotional Intelligence is the biggest key to overcoming negative emotions, such as anxiety and fear.

This course will give you the tools that you need to develop emotional intelligence so you can recognize negative emotions (such as anxiety) while they’re happening, identify the triggers that cause the emotion, and overcome the emotion.

We’ve been told lies about our emotions:

Emotions are bad or that we’re not supposed to express them.
We should trust them—trust our gut—but, wait, no—emotions are irrational and shouldn’t be trusted
Emotions are something that happens TO us and, therefore, they’re outside of our control.

The truth is that you CAN control your emotional state, including fear and anxiety. You can learn how to avoid the unwanted ones and purposefully create the ones you want. Just think about an astronaut—they HAVE to learn how to control their mind, emotions and body in order to handle the extreme stress of living in space. And, if they are human beings and can develop their emotional intelligence to overcome any anxiety and fear, so can you.

In fact, the skill of emotional intelligence is perhaps the most valuable skill you can EVER acquire. By developing your INTRApersonal emotional intelligence skills, you are able to understand and regulate your own emotions. And that is the best way to be prepared to develop your INTERpersonal skills, a.k.a. your ability to understand other people's emotions.

Being able to cope with and prevent high intensity stress, anxiety and fear unlocks our greatest abilities, frees us to go for our wildest dreams, and is a powerful factor that is often overlooked when comparing those who are successful at achieving their dreams and those who are not.

For most of us, in our homes and schools, no one teaches us about our emotions and how they work.

No one teaches that WE can control emotions such as fear and anxiety by using the power of our own mind to become aware of our thoughts and feelings and so unlock the ability to choose our emotions and direct the content of our lives.

No one teaches us that lack of emotional management is what leads to drama, anxiety, suffering, addiction, stress and poor decisions…. And that if we learn to control our emotions we can avoid these things.

Emotional intelligence matters.

And that’s why we’ve created this course. We’ll focus on 3 of the most undesirable emotions—uncertainty, anxiety, fear—and how you can use emotional awareness and self-control techniques to take back control of your emotions and feel better now.

We’ll teach you what your emotions REALLY mean, how to recognize them, and how to direct them in a way that allows you to move toward your life goals

We’ll teach how to get out of your head and become the observer of your emotions as they happen, so you can avoid being hijacked by your own brain and feel in control again. In other words, you will take your power back from anxiety, stress, and negative emotions.

In this course, you will learn:

Emotional Intelligence insights into to what emotions are and how they work
Emotional Intelligence tools to recognize and identify your emotions
Emotional Intelligence tools to direct your thoughts, giving you the power to direct your emotions
Emotional Intelligence techniques for re-framing your perspective to find the blessings hidden within the pain
