My invitation for today
Today I wish to invite you to develop your capacity to be
mindful of your emotions and to develop a structure that will
enable you to extend, to enhance and to build your emotional
language.
My thought for today
“Learn to listen without preconception or judgement.”
The starting point of any form of increasing awareness is to
begin to notice and where better to start than within
ourselves?
If we are unable to comprehend our own emotional
experiences, then we are unlikely to comprehend the feelings
and emotions of others.
To really use our emotions as the bringers of good and
valuable information, we will need to become adept at
identifying and listening to them. This will include an ability
to recognize our individual emotions.
Because our thoughts and feelings are so interlaced, we often
don’t notice the difference between them, let alone our own
internal mental attitude towards our emotions.
