Why do I react this way? Causes and benefits of emotions. Psychological workshop

Emotions are keys to self-acceptance or obstacles to a happy life? It depends on you. Anger towards a spouse, guilt towards a child, fear that keeps you in hateful relationships, shame in front of society... Emotions and feelings accompany us throughout our lives. They govern behavior, lead to relationship breakdowns, dictate their own rules, cause discomfort, and are not always easy to manage. They arise whenever what is happening is important to us. But since childhood, we are taught to hide them. This book will break stereotypes about "bad" emotions and teach you how to harness the power of emotions. With its help, you will be able to understand what an emotion is saying, learn about your true needs, cope with experiences, learn to act differently, and form a habit of enjoying life. The author is a clinical psychologist with over 15 years of private practice. The foundation of the book is the stories of real clients who are learning to accept their emotions. Their experiences, interesting theories, exercises, and the author's methods described in the book help to look at emotions in a new way and understand how to learn to live with them in friendship. An unexpected perspective on the topic of emotions helps to better understand your body and behavior. Open the book, and emotions will now become true keys to understanding yourself. But be careful: after reading this book, you will no longer be able to live as you did before!
