SUMMARY:FREE ZOOM • Emotion Regulation 101: Science-Backed Skills for Everyday Life
DESCRIPTION:Join Marc Brackett\, Ph.D.\, founder of the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence and author of the best-selling book Permission to Feel and the new book\, Dealing with Feelings\, for an insightful and practical session on emotion regulation with The Mental Health Coalition. \nIn this webinar\, Marc will break down what emotion regulation is (and is not) and why it is an essential skill for everyone. \nYou’ll learn how to recognize and respond to emotions in ways that strengthen your wellbeing\, improve your relationships\, and help you navigate daily challenges. \nIn this session\, you’ll discover how to pause\, reflect\, and choose how you respond to even the most difficult emotions. While we can’t always control our environment\, we can manage our reactions. Developing that skill can transform how we show up as parents\, teachers\, managers\, partners\, and friends. \nYou’ll leave with actionable\, science-backed tools you can use every day to better manage your emotions and create a more balanced\, connected\, and intentional life. \n📅 September 23 | 🕚 11:00–12:00 PM ET\n✨ Free to join — register now: https://lnkd.in/ecT6VrKx
