Session Information: Connecting Values and Emotions - a New Approach to developing Emotional Intelligence Key Concepts: The answer to the question “Where do emotions come from?” The knowledge of emotions and especially where they come from is a key element to Emotional Intelligence. If we know where emotions come from it is easier for us to understand our own emotional reactions and the emotional reactions of other people. The idea presented in this workshop is that emotions are linked with our value system and every attempt to change it from outside generates an emotion. In this lively session you will build your own system of values and experience its influence on your basic emotions. Prepare to face some surprising consequences!
