I think what you said and what Mark mentioned in his course, it's the way we create new associations with certain experiences.
The way I found worked was projecting this experience into writing and being more conscious. Then, I accompanied how I feel negative towards an event with how I felt positive in the past that is similar in concept. It helped to regulate my emotions and lowered the intensity of that association.
I became more self-aware and my reactions became more conscious. So, I put those emotions on the back burner so when I can, I go back and analyze it. I turned that emotional experience as a learning foundation.
Even better, my wife and I have regular reflection with one another so we can exchange perspectives and uses our recent experiences (usually recent movies or shows) and reference them in our talks. It's a pretty awesome and rare system to have in a relationship.
I'm building an app for it where you'll eventually include turning your emotions to some kind of Pokemon mechanics and storytelling. Hopefully my thoughts was any helpful :)
I'd be happy for you to check it out and maybe teach you how to use it. Here's the link if you're curious: https://www.selfrell.com/
So quality and frequency of data is a challenge, it seems. Tracking moods can raise awareness, which can be beneficial. Incomplete or inconsistent tracking makes it hard to draw meaningful conclusions from the data.
Hi Val! I’m reading Brene Brown’s “Atlas of the Heart,” which is all about naming emotions and how complicated that can be! Sometimes when we think we’re angry, we’re actually sad or ashamed. Or when we think we’re nervous, we’re actually excited. It’s interesting! Knowing this, I think that’s a real limitation of mood-tracking apps too.
