Lesson Overview

16.01 – What Is Emotional Regulation?: Emotional regulation is the ability to notice your feelings and guide them instead of letting them take control of you. Everyone feels angry, sad, or stressed sometimes, but emotional regulation helps you respond in ways that don’t make the situation worse. It means learning to pause before reacting, choosing words or actions that match your goals, and understanding what your emotions are trying to tell you. It’s not about ignoring how you feel but learning how to manage your reactions in healthy ways. When you can recognize your triggers and use strategies like breathing, reframing, or taking a short break, you keep your emotions from building up or spilling over. Regulating emotions builds confidence because you stop fearing your own feelings. You start realizing that every emotion can be handled with patience and skill. This helps relationships, focus, and decision-making because you think clearly instead of impulsively. Emotional regulation takes practice, but each small win makes you mentally stronger. Over time, you become the calm in your own storm instead of getting lost in it.
