About this listen
Have you ever felt so angry, anxious, or overwhelmed that you couldn’t think clearly?
What if the fastest way to calm down isn’t deep breathing… or distraction… but simply naming what you feel?
In this episode, we explore the powerful science behind affect labelling — a neuroscience-backed technique that shows how putting emotions into words reduces limbic activation and increases self-control. In simple terms: when you name the feeling, your brain regains balance.
You’ll discover:
• Why strong emotions hijack rational thinking
• How labelling emotions reduces stress and reactivity
• The difference between anger and the feelings hiding beneath it
• A simple 20-second method to regain emotional control
• How to use emotional awareness in arguments, stress, relationships, and decision-making
This episode blends emotional intelligence, neuroscience, psychology, and practical communication tools into strategies you can use immediately in everyday life.
Because emotions are not enemies.
They are signals.
And when you learn to name them, you learn to lead them.
🎧 Listen now — and turn emotional chaos into calm clarity.
