We perceive reality with our senses, we experience it with our feelings and emotions, and we become aware of it with our thoughts.
Rather than opposing emotions to rationality in decision-making, we can use feelings and emotions as a lever to help us make decisions if we learn how to manage them.
Managing our emotions does not mean ignoring or silencing them; it is indeed possible to use them as a tool to guide us into our choices.
Awareness of emotions and feelings informs us about how we experience a situation and perceive reality; it also guides us towards our stakes, our motivations and our brakes.
Establishing a conscious dialogue between our thoughts and our body by paying attention to our senses and feelings provides us with valuable information: this posture of observation and interchange sheds light on our reactions and also brings to light any low signals coming from our environment; it allows us to take a step back from a situation and provides us with the means to adapt to it.
