Emotional intelligence- Reflection

Just like all other life classes, I was both excited and inhibited. But history repeats itself and I had a lot of takeaways from each and every session.
The concept which stuck with me the most was the Amygdala hijack which I am much more aware of now. The autopilot mode is more evident now and I try to be in the present moment. The universal emotions in this VUCA world affects us not only mentally but also physically as there are numerous changes in our body while experiencing these emotions.
We understood strategies to be self-aware and then self-regulate ourselves. The guided meditation conducted by Evelyn ma’am helped a lot in introspecting our emotions and feel lighter. Journaling and discussions gave better clarity about how we can self-regulate our feelings.
The session by Vardan sir gave more insights about pleasure, passion and purpose. In addition to this through videos, we understood our purpose and ikigai.
Overall, looking forward to becoming a better emotionally intelligent person in the future.
