All in A Name: How To Recognize And Label Emotions
Emotions.
They play an essential role in creating our perceptions throughout life.
They signal awareness of our current circumstances and guide our day-to-day interactions. They determine, to varying degrees, our thoughts, feelings, and interactions.
Yet, for many of us, putting our thoughts and feelings into words can be particularly difficult. Naming our emotions enables more effective self-regulation by engaging various mechanisms within our emotional and physiological systems.
Our guest today, author, Sean B.W. Parker shares his experiences with trauma, the criminal justice system, and stammering. We discussed how rumination and anticipatory anxiety can be used to reframe thought processes and how they can use Sean's story to explore the underlying issues and causes. They agreed to start from Sean's experiences within the criminal justice system and work backward.
Parker shared how he was thrust into a new environment as a young person and experienced racism and stammering, which led to feelings of shame. He discussed his family dynamic and how his older brother resented his presence, leading to a subconscious competition for their mother's love.
Sean Parker discussed the criminalization of young men in the criminal justice system and how creativity can be a source of expression and liberation. He also discussed the difficulty of expressing himself in prison due to his stammering and the lack of resources available. He also discussed the importance of honest conversations in the media and how it can help to get around the lies.
As a means to manage his difficult emotions, Sean shared how he played drums in a prison band and how he was able to remain calm and rational in a difficult situation. He and Jeffrey Besecker discussed the concept of ego and how it can be used as a perceptive filter. They also discussed the stigmatism around certain topics and how to approach them without judgment. They agreed to have another conversation soon to discuss justice reform.
