Step 1: Labeling Emotions to Activate Executive State
To activate your executive state, it's essential to learn the emotions associated with survival state and executive state. By labeling your emotions, you become aware of the emotions that trigger your survival state. This awareness gives you the power to take action in moving from survival to executive state. Recognizing that you 'feel sad' rather than 'I am sad' separates you from the emotion, allowing you to let go and shift into executive state.
