ReThinking

NOTE

The Importance of Mood

Emotions are not things that happen to us, but are made by our brains in real-time as we feel them./nWe have the ability to train our brains to learn different emotion words and concepts, becoming emotion experts./nHaving a high level of granularity in our emotions allows for precise and tailored emotional responses to specific situations./nDescribing emotions with specific words helps make sense of our affect and allows for more directed actions./nA general mood is a reflection of how well the brain is regulating the body, while specific emotions provide guidance for actions.
