Emotional Life of the Female
Brain
Have your ever heard this? “Women are too emotional or why are you
crying?” As a woman, I know I have. I have been in a movie, tears running
down my face and my husband just shakes his head or I have been in a
meeting and on the verge of tears, trying to hold them back so I don’t
appear to be “weepy” or “emotional”, when really, I just want to scream.
Funny thing, as humans we are all emotional. Yep even the guys!
Have you ever thought, I wish I could understand why this “insert
situation” causes me to feel “insert one of the thousands emotions”? Do you
want to know why you react the way that you do to things and people? Do you
want to know why one friend totally gets your tears, while another is
unmoved by the same thing? Do you want to know why certain people impact our
emotions so strongly? Do you want to know why sometimes there is nothing
better than ice cream with the girls? Do you want to gain insight and
perspective on all things emotional?
Join SPHERE Education and Brain Coach Jenn Green for the Emotional Life
of the Female Brain. This 6 week live, interactive, online workshop will
have you laughing, crying, frustrated, but it will leave you with a whole
new insight to the emotional life of your brain. We will explore the
following topics:
The Biology and Neurology of Emotions - Emotions aren’t
all psychology, and you can’t control your feelings; you can however
control your reaction. In Week One we will look at the brain and biological
process of emotions. We will explore the differences between men’s and
women's brains when it come to emotion. We will understand the physical
process of each emotion. How long emotions last in the body? What impact
different emotions have on us physically?
The Emotional Blueprint - We weren’t born knowing how
to feel about things, we learned it somewhere. Week Two we will discover
our emotional blueprints and how and why we feel certain emotions. We will
uncover why certain events impact us in such profound ways. We will examine
who contributed to our emotional process and reactions, you might be
surprised as you learn who impacts us and how.
Emotional Awareness - “I have no idea how I feel!” Week
Three will discuss the different kinds of emotions. Are emotions good or
bad? Why we judge certain emotions, both in ourselves and others? Why is it
so hard sometimes to pinpoint how we feel? We will begin our development of
personal emotional awareness and acceptance.
Emotional Responsibility - “You make me feel…”
Week Four we will take a hard look at who is responsible for how we feel.
Why we are so willing to assign responsibility for certain feelings to
someone else, and quick to reject someone blaming their emotional state on
us. We will then explore why and how we sometimes feel responsible for
someone else’s emotions and what that can do to our mental health.
Emotional Ownership - Sometimes we just need to be sad.
Week Five we will dive into the concept of “sitting in an emotion.” How do
you allow yourself to really feel and process emotions? Can you work
through sadness or can you just “get over” something? We will learn a
process for fully feeling our emotions, how to come to terms with the
feelings around a certain situation, and how to let things go. We will also
learn our reactions are our responsibility, and how to model that lesson to
our family, friends, children, and coworkers.
Our Tribe and Emotional Support - We all know who to
turn to when we feel a certain way. Week Six we will explore the complex
system of friends, romantic partners, acquaintances, strangers, and family.
We will learn how to recognize which members of our tribe support us in
different times and which ones make us crazy. We will discuss how to build
a tribe that encourages your authentic self and supports your emotional and
mental well being.
