The Language of Emotional Intelligence

McGraw Hill publishes a new book on Emotional Intelligence by Helpguide’s Co-founder

Emotional intelligence is more important than traditional intelligence in predicting success in our relationships, both at home and at work. Research shows that emotional intelligence develops in infancy through a communication process between the mother and baby known as attachment.

This relationship leads to an attachment bond that profoundly influences all future communication. But because the brain continues to change throughout life, we can also learn emotional intelligence as adults.

Emotional Intelligence is not something you’re born with -- it’s learned!

Dr. Segal’s latest book teaches you the emotional skills you need to communicate effectively with the people you work with and the people you love.

These skills are easier to remember when you think of them as five metaphoric tools:

The Elastic allows your nervous system to stretch to accommodate any stressor
The Glue keeps you connected to the feelings of others and your own feelings.
The Pulley helps you navigate the give and take of nonverbal communication.
The Ladder allows you to rise above life’s challenges.
The Velvet Hammer gives you a positive means for resolving conflict.

“Packed with simple exercises, revealing self quizzes, and proven calming techniques, this user-friendly guide can help you reach into the hearts and minds of others … Dr. Segal’s method is a complete hands-on approach to one of the most important life skills you will ever learn”

The Language of Emotional Intelligence, published by McGraw Hill, is now available at your local bookstore or online at Amazon.com
