Description
Emotional literacy is more than just understanding our feelings; it's about harnessing them to foster better mental health and improve our daily lives. In an era where anxiety and depression are prevalent, it's vital to explore the science behind our emotions and how they impact our well-being. As a physician and TEDx speaker with over 10 years of experience in the field of mental health, I have seen first-hand the importance of using emotional literacy as a tool in our understanding and even prevention of mental health disorders. By diving into the current mental health landscape, this course provides a fresh perspective on how emotions shape our experiences and behaviours.

Through engaging discussions and practical exercises, you will learn to differentiate between stress and anxiety and debunk common emotional health myths. The course introduces various models and techniques, such as the N2-S2 model for self-awareness and the What-How-Why method, to help you better understand your emotional bed and develop healthier coping strategies. By focusing on emotional literacy, you will discover effective ways to utilize your emotions as tools for growth, resilience, and overall health.

By the end of this course, you will be equipped with practical strategies and a deeper understanding of emotional intelligence that you can apply in your personal and professional life. Whether you seek to improve your mental health or support others in their journey, this course offers valuable insights and techniques that can make a significant difference.

Who Should Attend
This course is ideal for individuals looking to enhance their emotional intelligence and better manage stress, anxiety, and other mental health challenges. It is particularly beneficial for professionals in high-stress environments, such as healthcare, education, and corporate settings, who wish to develop healthier coping mechanisms.

The practical strategies discussed will also be valuable to therapists, counsellors, and social workers, who can integrate them into their practice to support clients. Additionally, anyone interested in personal development and emotional growth will gain profound insights and skills from this course.
