About the product
This hardcover journal offers a perfect blend of style and functionality, making it an ideal companion for creativity and self-reflection...a thoughtful gift for holidays or any personal milestone.
FIRST UNDERSTAND is number one of eight of ELA’s Guiding Principles and Values. Under this number one heading, we say: Emotion Literacy Advocates’ primary motivation is to understand emotion—an often misunderstood aspect of the human condition. The ability to translate emotion affords us the opportunity to know feelings and their constellation of soft (non-physical) needs, memories and associations.
We have adorned a journal book with art and these words because we want to encourage self-reflection and writing as key operatives for learning and developing communication skills, beginning with self-communication.These practices are essential for developing trust in the part of our brain that enables us to think critically and creatively and for expanding our capacities in doing so.
