2nd Day - Understand Emotions: Acceptance
“Understanding emotions--accepting them and having strategies to respond to them--is essential to cultivate resilience.” p.45
Emotions are temporary. We should make friends with our feelings. “Emotions motivate us to act, get organized, prioritize, and solve problems.” p.66
“Understanding our emotional self allows us to discern our options and, ultimately, to accept what we cannot change and put our energies toward what we can.” p.66
When we reclaim our right to experience emotions and talk to each other about them, we find a source of energy, strength, and connection that allows us to fulfill our purpose. p.67~Onward by Elena Aguilar
