EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE & EQUANIMITY
2 IDEAS FROM ME
Our emotional intelligence has a powerful impact on the quality of our connections with ourselves, others, and the environment. Cultivating emotional intelligence through self-confidence, self-control, and empathic social skills enables us to respond to life challenges with insight, wisdom, and love rather than destructive habits of undeveloped conditioning.
Equanimity is undisturbable psychological composure and harmony of mind to respond from your highest values.

“Emotional intelligence is simply the capacity to manage emotions skillfully in the service of high positive energy and full engagement. In practical terms, the key “muscles” or competencies that fuel positive emotion are self-confidence, self-control, social skills, and empathy.” —Jim Loehr and Tony Swartz (The Power of Full Engagement)
“The intelligence quotient (IQ) allows us to think. Emotional intelligence (EQ) helps us relate. Spiritual intelligence (SQ) will enable us to do both in times of rapid change.” —Margo Cairness
