Cultivating positive emotional states

Training Theme 

This 15-minute training provides a practical approach to cultivating positive emotional states while learning how to manage negative emotions. It is based on five key strategies: welcoming emotions, cultivating positive states, accepting our humanity, positive decision-making, and developing practical tools. Through concrete examples, exercises, and the concept of mirror neurons, participants discover how to transform their relationship with emotions and improve their daily well-being. The training encourages a balanced approach that does not deny negative emotions but uses them as levers for personal growth.
