Greater Emotional Intelligence (EQ) enhances one’s life immensely. Our bodies and minds are energy systems. Have you ever walked into a room of people and felt hostility immediately? That’s energy. Have you been in the presence of someone who immediately makes you feel a strong sense of peace and serenity? That is energy. Have you walked into an empty room and felt peace? That’s lingering energy. What about an empty room that feels hostile? That is also lingering energy.
Let’s define EQ. Emotional intelligence is the ability to understand emotions, particularly one’s own emotions. “Know thyself”, proclaims the ancient Greek aphorism. Self-awareness and self-regulation are the first two tenets of EQ.

It is more Emotionally Intelligent (and Healthy)
We all have things about which we feel very strongly. It may be our political affiliation, our religious beliefs (or not), or the state of the economy. Having passionate beliefs and feelings are normal and healthy behavior. However, expressing them in a loud or disrespectful manner is neither healthy nor emotionally intelligent.
It becomes an unhealthy pattern for us is when we concentrate on what we don’t value instead of what we do value. Just this small switch in perspective can make a huge change in our daily lives. When we focus on what we “don’t like”, our energy is simply not being used wisely. Continue reading ‘Let your Values Speak FOR Something…’ »

Emotional Intelligence, sometimes called EI or EQ, is a strong indicator of the level of success one can attain in life, both in the personal and business realms. Experts say that a heightened EQ increases happiness because it allows you to focus on feelings as well as facts.
