What is Emotional Regulation?
Emotional regulation is the practice that aids in handling and managing emotions constructively and adaptively.
How to Regulate Emotions:
Deep breathing and mindfulness practices.
- Education on emotional vocabulary to ensure that emotions are expressed appropriately
- Utilization of visual aids such as emotion charts that help identify and process emotions.
Emotional regulation is integral to mental well-being and getting on with others; the development of this skill is the work of parents, teachers, and indeed therapists with young people.
