Emotional Intelligence, Made Practical - Emotional Agility, Made Practical
Emotional agility, developed by psychologist Susan David, is the ability to engage with your emotions — including the difficult ones — with curiosity and without being controlled by them. Unlike toxic positivity, it does not suppress or reframe negative feelings away; it asks you to see them clearly and choose your response from values rather than from reflex. The framework draws heavily on ACT (acceptance and commitment therapy), which has a well-established research base. - Teach the four zones and what each one feels like
Give children a shared map of internal states before asking them to regulate.
Zones of Regulation (Leah Kuypers) - Emotional Intelligence, Made Practical
Emotional intelligence, popularized by Daniel Goleman, is the ability to perceive, understand, and manage emotions in yourself and others, often grouped into self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy, and social skill. The component skills are real and trainable, but the sweeping popular claims (e.g., that EQ predicts success better than IQ) are contested and should be read with caution. - Ask the workability question
Ask "is what I am doing working?" — not "is it right?" but whether it is moving you toward the life you want.
