Have you ever been swept away with emotion.  It feels like you can’t control it and you can’t think straight, it feels overwhelming.  Maybe you freeze or burst into tears and afterwards you feel silly, exhausted and embarrassed.  You see strong emotions, when we don’t manage them, make us stupid and hijack our thinking. But it doesn’t have to be like this.  You can get better at recognising and managing your yourself so you understand your emotions and you never have to risk being paralysed or swept away by them again.
