Do you recognise the emotions you are feeling? Can you manage those feelings without allowing them to take over you?

Or do you feel that emotions “get in the way” of you living a rich and meaningful life? Perhaps you are finding it difficult to have relationships and communicating with other people.

That’s where emotional intelligence comes in!

Emotional intelligence is all about understanding emotions. Whether it be identifying and managing your own feelings or reading and interpreting the moods of others.
