WHY ARE SO MANY OF US RAISING OUR HANDS?

How many of the following would you raise your hand to?

I often feel flawed.

I often feel unlovable.

I often feel unworthy.

I often feel rejected.

I often feel disrespected.

I often feel dismissed.

I often feel lonely.

I often feel shameful.

I often feel abandoned.

I often feel betrayed.

I often feel (some other yucky feeling).

I could go on and on, but you get the point. So what's going on that so many of us are raising our hands and saying, "Yep, that's me too!"

Could it be that so many of us feel disconnected? We feel disconnected from others, but we also feel disconnect from ourselves. We're going through life trying to show up as if we've got a great life. And maybe we are doing fairly well in a number of areas, but these difficult sensations keep showing up over and over.

Most students and clients I speak with, have a low level, constant, deep feeling that something is missing. One client told me, "I try and stay busy, because as long as I'm busy I don't have that feeling. When ball season is over, or that big project is complete, I know I'd better be looking for the next thing or else I have this sense, this longing, that something's missing, and I don't like how it feels because I don't know what to do about it."

I know that feeling. I'd had it for as long as I could remember. I kept looking for a resolution, trying to find it, taking this class, that course, reading this self-help book, watching that documentary, and applying my hand at a variety of modalities (EFT, reiki, theta healing, tarot card reading, breathwork, journaling, and more.)

And, even though I'd tried "a million" different things, and it was all great while I was tied up in it, and everything moved me forward a bit, when it was done ..... something was still missing. Ugh!

I kept wondering "Why? What is this elusive "it" that is missing?"

It turns out that over 75% of the American population has these same feelings. Most are not connected to their own feelings and emotions. Yikes! Being able to, or even the thought of connecting with your emotions for many sounds upsetting and scary, especially if you have confusing, painful, or threatening feelings from childhood.

This is not good, but there is GOOD NEWS.

I know you’ve heard the words “emotional intelligence“ but do you really know what it means?

Do you know how beneficial it is to your life both personally and professionally to raise your emotional IQ (EIQ)? Well, I'll tell you .... it makes a HUGE difference!

Raising your EIQ is like GAINING A SUPERPOWER! No kidding.

IQ is your intelligence quotient, and EQ or EIQ, is your emotional intelligence quotient. In the same way that your IQ indicates your intellectual knowledge, your EIQ indicates your emotional knowledge. And the wonderful thing about EIQ is that anyone can learn it and it’s not about how “smart” you are, nor how high your IQ is. These two are VERY DIFFERENT animals.

What's so different?

Emotional intelligence is the ability to understand, use, and manage your own emotions IN POSITIVE WAYS to relieve stress, communicate effectively, empathize with others, overcome challenges and defuse conflict. Interestingly, most people are never taught how important their emotions are, and how much they affect your behavior. EVERY SINGLE DAY we have over 400 emotional encounters, whether we realize it or not. Most people fly through them not even aware that they happen or that they exist… and yet that’s what CONTROLS how we feel, what we do, how we act, what we think, what we say, and more.

Is it time to take a look at where you are in your emotional intelligence journey?
