ASP041: What Is Emotional Sobriety?


Emotional Sobriety With Dr. Robb Dean

Emotional Sobriety is the ability to have a healthy relationship sith ones emotions.  To be in touch.  To be aware.  To let yourself feel them and interpret them.  Emotions are a fact of something going on inside of you.  Emotional Sobriety is the ability to act on your emotions in a healthy way.

Emotional sobriety is not an emotional roller coaster.  It is not being whiplashed by your emotions.

In general, the idea that other people cause me to feel anything is erroneous.

Many people have disassociated from their feelings.

After one brother passed away, she decided that his death would not be in vain. Only recently after watching Johann Hari's Ted Talk: Everything You Know About Addiction is Wrong did she decided to take action by focusing on inspiring hope and change by providing love and support to friends and family members of addicts. “Be the change you wish to see in the world” - Gandhi
