Master Your Emotions Clark Brown

There are different alleged emotions as researchers have diverse thoughts about them. Basically, there are seven common emotions, and they are happiness, fear, disgust, surprise, anger, hate, and sadness.


Some secondary emotions are built around these and when added up can round up to over twenty emotions. However, research has further disputed that there are only four emotions and not seven, but this is just categorizing the seven emotions into four.


There is no distinct region in the brain where all our emotions, both positive and negative, are being processed.


The organization of neural networks in the brain, which involves the visual and auditory areas in the temporal and occipital regions, which then processes information coming into the brain generates emotions. Emotions are unconscious.


For example, you see a scary picture on your phone in your home. Even though you are at your home and you are relatively safe, that doesn't stop you from being scared or sometimes screaming.


Being at home does not mean your body won't physiologically respond to the fear with fast heartbeats, dilated pupils, and faster breaths. Before you come to your senses that you are safe, your autonomic nervous system has already triggered your body and put in it the fight-or-flight mode.


This is to explain that our emotions do not automatically translate to how we feel; however, it influences our actions.


Our emotions are more powerful than we think they are because they control our thoughts, and they are the foundations for more thoughts to come.


The fact that our emotions show up before we think is very helpful in threatening situations because our bodies would have taken action before our brain has the time to think about it. At this point, our emotions motivate our decision to either fight or run.


in this book I will show you exactly how to manage your emotions perfectly so as to live more serenely and overcome negativity.
