165. Emotion Regulation Skills – DBT Skills Series


Listen Later

Do you struggle with managing your emotions? Do you think we have a choice with our feelings? In this episode, you will hear about how to be more skillful with your emotions. You will find out what good emotions are and their purpose. Also there will be very helpful and specific skills and handling emotions.

This is a 3rd of a series called DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy) series – the 1st one was Interpersonal effectiveness and the 2nd was distress tolerance. Let me explain the difference with skills verses deep trauma work. When your house is on fire and you are struggling, you are not thinking about healing at that time, you just need to make a good choice in a difficult moment. Today’s episode is on skills to manage difficult emotions when they show up.

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” ~Matthew 11:28-30
