Emotion, emotional intelligence and our emotional health

Emotion is an essential aspect of interpersonal communication. The capacity to feel is what makes us human, and what connects us to one another. Emotional intelligence is what helps us to achieve our potential, and to fulfil our hearts’ ambitions. So, the more we develop and refine our emotional intelligence the more we can enjoy fulfilling relationships, realize our deepest longings, manage life’s conflicts with grace, and create fair, peaceful and sustainable societies.

Many of the experiences we have in childhood leave a lasting emotional impression, even if we don’t consciously recall them. Childhood therefore has a profound influence on how we relate to each other as adults.

The good news is there is a lot we can do to develop our emotional intelligence as adults. Counselling or psychotherapy can do much to help us develop our emotional health. Conflicts and difficulties can be turned into opportunities for learning, healing and growth.

Nurturing our emotional health can transform our relationships, and in fact, it can change the world.

Since our childhood experiences so strongly influence our emotional health, the way we raise our children is of profound consequence.

Robin¹s second book, 'Heart To Heart Parenting' is due for release in April 2008 through ABC Bookstores. An empowering book for parents, Heart To Heart Parenting is more than just a 'how to' book about raising happy and resilient children. It aims to help you create a deep and lasting relationship that is unique to you and your child. Using techniques that are based on connection rather than shaming, manipulation and punishment, Robin Grille introduces you to insightful and practical ways to benefit your child's emotional well-being and social development

Robin¹s timely work provides a vital and highly usable tool kit for parents and professionals alike to support children to grow up in ways which will support humanity to greater peace and sustainability and give to back to us all more happiness,wellbeing and security.

Parenting Heart to Heart talks warmly and straightforwardly to the parent. It powerfully supports the reader to access the deepest love and connection that comes from nurturing relationships.

Heart To Heart Parenting by Robin Grille
Inside every parent is the blueprint to intuit exactly what is right for their children beyond formulas and fads. Robin Grill ignites that blueprint, validates its wisdom and provokes it into action in a book that dares to give parents back their dignity and their sovereignty. In so doing, Heart to Heart Parenting is a journey into meaningful, authentic connection with ourselves and our children, and a discovery of our human birthright peace and love.
Kali Wendorf, Editor, Kindred Magazine

"Stunning, absolutely fascinating! You'll never think about childhood the same way again..."
Sandy McCutcheon, ABC Radio National

This is the book that could save the world, if we can only pay attention.
Jan Hunt, MSc, Director of The Natural Child Project
