How to Notice and Name Emotions
How to Notice and Name Emotions | Emma McAdam
4 posts | 1 read
We all experience intense emotions at one point in our lives or another — it’s only human. But when it comes to managing and regulating our emotions, there’s no handbook for how to handle difficult emotions when they sneak up on you. We might try a short-term solution in the moment, but this doesn’t equip us to deal with these emotions in the future. How can we better regulate our emotions, for the long haul?

In How to Notice and Name Emotions, an audio course from Scribd Coach, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Emma McAdam explains how you can notice and name your emotions, process the difficult ones, and prevent them from building up in a harmful way. Drawing from her background as a therapist, she explains all different areas of emotion processing: what it is and how you can create positive goals for yourself; the importance of naming emotions without judgment; how to appreciate the function of our emotions; vital skills for processing emotions; and more. She also shares exercises along the way to help you put what you’ve learned into practice.

There is no handbook for managing emotions — but How to Notice and Name Emotions will put you on a solid path

I‘m giving this a pick rating for good content. However, it‘s the same content from Emma‘s emotional regulation course on her Therapy in a Nutshell YouTube channel. I‘m watching the course now, so I didn‘t learn anything new from this title. I recommend this book if you haven‘t taken the course. If you have taken it, skip this book.

CatLass007 I looked for this book on Amazon but I couldn‘t find it. The only thing I found is her podcast, Therapy in a Nutshell via Audible. I found Therapy in a Nutshell on YouTube also. Where did you find this book? 2w
Kerrbearlib I found it on Everand. This is the link to the book: https://www.everand.com/book/561935345 2w
CatLass007 Thank you for the info on Everand. 2w

Kerrbearlib @CatLass007 you‘re welcome! I signed up for a free trial with them and then forgot to cancel it, so I got charged for a year. I‘m making the most of it and reading whatever I can to get my money‘s worth, haha! 2w
CatLass007 Oh my goodness! Do they charge you for an entire year all at once? (edited) 2w
Kerrbearlib @CatLass007 they did with the plan I did the trial for, lol. I think they have monthly plans though. 2w
CatLass007 I‘ll check it out. I tried Scribd several years back but I didn‘t really like the plans they offered. 1w

My cat Lorelei sitting with my husband's glasses case. How's everyone holding up? I'm anxious but hanging in there. The impending inauguration is days away and it's weighing heavily on my mind. I'm taking things one moment at a time and embracing joyful moments when I can. But good gracious, this is hard 😥

Aims42 It is hard and you are not alone in feeling this way ❤️‍🩹 I find myself just randomly remembering Monday is the day and then my mood just nosedives. I don‘t have any words of wisdom, but you‘re not alone 🫶🏻 2w
dabbe I feel like Indiana Jones going into the cave with the snakes, and there's nothing I can do to escape. As @Aims42 said, you're not alone. 🩶🖤🩶 #lovelylorelei 🖤🐾🖤 2w
