Are you OK with that? Many of us don't realize our emotions are making our decisions until it is too late, we've been triggered, we've reacted, perhaps even inappropriately. In this second workshop with Resilience Coach Lou Bevacqui, participants will learn to identify uncomfortable emotions such as anger, fear, or uncertainty, and develop tools to create the emotions that work for them, such as peace, joy, and love. E-motions are just that- a feeling that moves, that changes. It does not define you. The more folks can identify what they are feeling, the less likely they are to react or suppress the emotion.

Though this is the second in this workshop series, this workshop can be attended even if you didn't make the initial workshop last month at the Waterbury Library. "Your Emotions are Making your Decisions" takes place Tuesday, May 7th from 6-8 in the Library's SAL Room.

About Lou Bevacqui: Lou is the founder of the STARTRight method for emotional and mental centering in every situation. A licensed acupuncturist for over 20 years, Lou has seen first hand how repressed emotions have manifested in physical symptoms. Through his workshops, participants learn language and tools to identify and govern their emotions and, says Lou, "become more attuned to what is going on both inside and outside of them." Being more compassionate and understanding of yourself leads to that of others.
