It sounds like emotional regulation, not just emotional expression, but

the regulation of emotions is really important.

>> Yes.

>> I wonder if you could talk a little bit more about that.

>> Yeah, well, like I just said,

when you're expressing emotions, you feel emotional.

And being able to regulate

your own emotion is actually a very important human capacity.

There is a concept in biology, which is also utilized a lot in psychology.

That is the concept of homeostasis,

the so-called normal state that we tend to return to.

We have a sort of a normal heart rate or blood pressure.

It can change when you're active, or

when you're aroused, or when you're dealing with some external challenge.

But it'll, body temperature as well but

then everything will return to more or less the same level.

So with emotions, we hope the same thing will happen.

So you get excited, you get stimulated, you get aroused, hopefully,

you'll be returning to a relatively calm and stable state.

But if it doesn't happen, it can then become a mental health challenge,

like people who are chronically depressed, for example.

Or people who feel sad, and they might have good reasons for

feeling that, but the problem is that they do not return to

a more stable state in which you are not sad.

Or if you’re anxious, which is probably a natural

response to external stress or threat or challenge.

But, again, if you’re constantly in that state and you do not return to a

more relaxed and calm state, something is wrong with your emotional accumulation.

Problems with emotional regulation can actually

become severe mental health or even physical health issues.

In a interpersonal relationship, if you're not able to regulate your emotion,

then you have a higher chance of doing things or saying things that you later regret.

So it is obviously a good thing for

us to be able to become aware of our emotional experience and

be able to increase our capacity for regulating it.

And I just want to say this, we're not talking about suppressing your emotions,

we're not talking about denying your emotions, those are actually not helpful.

Good emotional regulation actually is predicated on,

I know that I'm feeling this, I know that I'm angry,

I know that I am anxious, or I'm sad or depressed, doesn't matter.

I know that I have those feelings and I accept that I have those feelings.

But I also understand that, yeah, I know I have those feelings but

I have the capacity to return to this, sort of homeostasis state.

Then I feel more comfortable and relaxed and

when I try to express my emotions I know that this is what I need to do now.

But I will get to a different state after that,

I think that is an important understanding.
