Learn To Identify

Naming your emotions is the first step to managing them! If you can pinpoint what you're feeling (like, is it anxiety or excitement?), you can start figuring out healthy ways to cope instead of just reacting.

Pay attention to body language, tone of voice, and facial expressions. Put yourself in their shoes and try to imagine what they might be experiencing. Remember, everyone expresses emotions differently, so avoid making assumptions and ask clarifying questions if you're unsure.

It happens! We all get it wrong sometimes. Start small by focusing on identifying basic emotions like happiness, sadness, anger, and fear. Practice active listening and ask open-ended questions to understand their perspective better. Over time, you'll get better at reading people.
