We're often told not to make decisions based on our emotions. We often suppress our emotions. How does the suppression of emotions affect your decision-making? Your life in general? When do your emotions help you and when don't they? Can you tell the difference? Let's look at this from a psychological point of view.
How often do you make decisions based on how you feel in the moment? How often do you take a step back to process your emotions? What's the difference between processing and suppressing? And how do the suppressed emotions end up shaping your future choices, behaviours, and relationships? Our emotions can either guide us or cloud our judgment, and understanding this dynamic is key to making more thoughtful, intentional decisions in all areas of life.
In this discussion, we'll explore the powerful connection between emotions, suppression of emotions, and decision-making. We'll look at how suppressed feelings can unconsciously influence our choices and discuss the long-term effects of ignoring or bottling up emotions. Join us for a deep dive into how emotional awareness—or the lack thereof—affects not just our decisions but our overall well-being. Whether in personal relationships, professional life, or day-to-day choices, understanding our emotional triggers can help us live more consciously and make decisions that truly align with who we are. Let's have a deep and intelligent conversation!
