SPARK YOUR VITALITY... KEEPING YOU IN THE KNOW!
What's New at Spark Your Vitality?
We are going to be introducing some topics of interest in the form
of lunch n’ learns over the next few months. The first two topics will be Mindfulness
and Emotional Intelligence. These terms
are frequently used and rarely defined. Practicing true mindfulness encourages
living in the present while it addresses the danger of distorted thinking, staying
in tune both mentally and emotionally improves perspective to enhance personal
a professional success.
With Improving Mindfulness,
you will begin to identify your own patterns of thinking. As you learn to
practice mindfulness, you will cultivate positive emotions that will have a
dramatic effect on you, your relationships and your business.
Emotional Intelligence is about your ability
to understand your own feelings, and that of others, and how these emotions can
influence motivation and behaviour. The concepts of Emotional Intelligence have
been around since at least the 1900's, but the term was first introduced by
Wayne Payne in 1985.
As a result of the growing acknowledgement by
professionals of the importance and relevance of emotions impacting outcomes, research
on the topic continued to gain momentum, but it wasn't until the publication of
Daniel Goleman's best seller Emotional Intelligence: Why It Can
Matter More Than IQ that the term became widely accepted by
mainstream media. This is a topic I am truly passionate about –and as I’ve
learned more about it, has allowed me to make positive change as well. Stay tuned for more information on these
topics!
