USING EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE TO tame YOUR OWN BRAIN
Do you find yourself scared or angry a little too often?
Those feelings can be uncomfortable, and might lead you to say or do the wrong thing sometimes. They come from the part of your brain called the amygdala, which looks for danger, but which too often over-reacts. That tendency to over-react comes from our cave-man ancestors, who constantly faced physical danger. But today, that tendency to over-react often lessens your ability to deal with modern problems. This book, Emotional Intelligence for a Divided World, will show you how to master this part of your brain and bring it up to date.
