In episode 40 of Outside The Bubble we're covering the 8 Characteristics of Emotion Theory and the importance of identifying and processing emotions for resiliency.  

#1: The emotional mind is quicker than the rational mind. 

#2: When we are emotionally aroused our emotions carry a sense of certainty 

#3: Emotions sacrifice accuracy for speed

#4 Emotions chose us we don't choose them 

#5 Emotions are associative 

#6 Emotions cause us to react to the present as if it were the past 

#7 The emotional mind is state specific 

#8 The emotional mind is normally in balance with the rational mind
