Summary
This module examined how emotions are related to each other. It
also taught you how to manage your emotions especially when
you interact with other people.
It argued as well that suppression of feelings is not helpful as it
builds up tension in your physical body.
Thus, you must always recognize and acknowledge your emotions
as well as release them in a way that will not hurt others.
