We’re in part 3 of the mini-course on Emotional Agility - here's a quick overview:
In Part 1, we looked at the neuroscience of emotions. How they’re created - and how they shape both your experience and your future.
In Part 2, we focused on how you can create a healthy baseline for emotional wellbeing, and what you can do in the moment an emotion arises in your body.
In this third part we’re going to look at one component of all the ingredients that create emotions: your thoughts.
I'll show you how to modify your thoughts to change your emotions.
You'll also learn when you should NOT change your thoughts to change your emotions (we don't want you to gaslight yourself), and when wanting to change your thoughts is actually a strategy to avoid doing something you'd rather not.

In this fourth part we’re going to dig a bit deeper into the art of influencing your emotions by changing your thoughts and thought-patterns.
Remember, your thoughts influence your emotions - whether they’re conscious or not.
And some of these have been imprinted in your brain so many times that they have become what I call solidified stories .
They seem so obvious and true to you that you won’t even consider questioning them.
You have solidified stories about the world, about money, about other people, about yourself.
And these solidified stories are a massive contributor to your emotions (remember: thoughts and beliefs in the database co-create your emotions in the moment as I explained in the first part of this mini-course).
So in this fourth part we’re going to look at how you can
- Identify them
- Unravel them
