The orange cards bring the Core Level alive. The green ones are introduced at the Advanced Level.
Card sorting and worksheets help you to see how your emotions do not arise one at a time during change. They arise in patterns of emotions. Your reactions to change arise out of the pattern!
When you SEE your emotions like this, and learn how they are a healthy part of a LOGICAL PROCESS, they become reasonable (even the unpleasant ones), and you can choose which ones to stay with, or how to turn them into action.
Emotional patterns are not right or wrong, but they can be helpful or unhelpful to move you through change. In some patterns, your emotional energy is all entangled with itself. That generates negative self-beliefs, like "I'm useless, weak, dangerous, bad, mad," and so on. Habits of thinking emerge from these underlying self-beliefs. When you can see where it's all coming from, you'll stop telling yourself off like this!
Emotional Logic has grown into a lifelong learning approach to personal development as a way to prevent unexpected distress turning into illness. It gives people a constructive way to face disappointments and setbacks, and to turn unpleasant emotions into their energy to make reasonable steps forward, or just hold their ground when under unreasonable stress.
Emotional Logic allows honesty to deeply and safely improve relationships. Courage improves; not just trumped-up motivational drive towards goals. Emotional Logic gets moving like a turbo-charge when setbacks have sapped your energy to keep motivated. It turns you around inside, and gives you something constructive to say when alongside others who are themselves distressed in a difficult situation you share. You'll become a resource person in family or organisation during times of change.
Emotional Logic is lifelong learning that gets in right at the roots of your identity - who you are. It gives you the language skills and a mental framework that strengthens your communications when circumstances have pushed you and others out of their comfort zones. It equips you to re-connect when your previous pattern of relationships has become strained, or broken by misunderstandings. The toolkit helps you see through all this, and find the ways to move on constructively.
Emotional Logic prevents issues building up.
It also helps when people are stuck, especially with problems such as:
But it's not about the problem! It's about you developing into the the solution with richer relationships and reasonable grounds for self-confidence.
Can it help me if I'm seeing a counsellor or doctor?
Yes. Learning Emotional Logic will not conflict in any way with any other health or counselling psychology intervention. On the contrary, it will help you to build a closer and more honest and open relationship with whoever is around with the skills and interest to help you.
