Welcome to Adaptable | Behavior Explained! Understanding emotions is crucial because they are the intricate language of our inner world, profoundly shaping our thoughts, actions, and interactions. Emotions serve as powerful signals that guide us through life's complexities, helping us adapt and thrive.
Firstly, comprehending emotions enables effective self-awareness. When we recognize and name our emotions, we gain insight into our desires, needs, and motivations. This self-awareness empowers us to make informed decisions, manage stress, and cultivate resilience.
Secondly, emotions play a pivotal role in our relationships. Recognizing and empathizing with others' emotions fosters deeper connections and effective communication. It helps build trust, resolve conflicts, and promote healthier interactions.
Moreover, emotions are integral to decision-making. They provide valuable information about what matters to us and can guide choices that align with our values and goals. Emotions also impact our physical and mental well-being. Chronic emotional stress can lead to health issues, while positive emotions enhance overall happiness and psychological resilience.
In essence, understanding emotions is essential for navigating life's intricacies. It empowers us to live authentically, build meaningful relationships, make sound decisions, and prioritize our well-being. Ultimately, emotional intelligence is the key to a more fulfilling and harmonious life.
I'm Kelly O'Horo, Attachment based EMDR Therapist, EMDRIA Consultant, and Advanced Trainer. I'm a mom of 5, Nonna of 5, wife, and a healer. I have the honor of spending my workdays walking along side people while they brave their healing journeys. I try to live with the generous assumption that we're all doing the best we can with what we know. Therapists are teachers for the "life stuff" and "emotional vocabulary" that may not have been learned due to gaps in our care givers capabilities. In the last 15 years I've learned that people are freaking amazing, resilient, and inspiring. Most importantly, we are hardwired for connection and for healing!
I hope to bring an authentic, compassionate, and unpolished approach while we explore a variety of topics such as parenting, marriage, relationships, dating, trauma, attachment, adoption, depression, addiction, anxiety, and love! There's a why for all behaviors and an explanation that makes perfect sense as emotion is at the root of it all.
