The mental well-being of adults and children is surprisingly low today. Marc Brackett, a professor of psychology at Yale University and an expert in childhood emotional intelligence, knows why and how we can remedy it. During his twenty-five years as a researcher of emotions, he has developed a plan to understand and use them wisely so that they contribute to our well-being instead of hindering our path. His proposal is the RULER system (Recognizing, Understanding, Labeling, Expressing, Regulating), a high-impact method for understanding and mastering emotions that has already transformed thousands of schools and organizations that have already adopted it. RULER reduces stress and exhaustion, enhances our performance and improves the environment in which we find ourselves. In this book, which is the culmination of his development, Brackett shares his strategies and skills with readers around the world. With a combination of rigor, science, passion and inspiration, it shows us that emotional intelligence is not a gift, but a skill that we can all learn to improve our quality of life at home, at school and at work.
