Today I am speaking with Teodora Pavkovik--Singapore and New York based Psychologist, Life and Parenting Coach. https://www.teopcoaching.com/ We discuss Emotional Intelligence, Positive Psychology, Emodiversity, Resilience, Digital Wellness, & Parenting in Digital World She discusses growing up as a third culture kid in present day Serbia (formerly Yugoslavia) and Kuwait during war torn times in the 90s surrounded by different cultures, religions, and customs and the resilience, preserved childhood, and innocence her parents were able to provide, despite the circumstances of her surroundings. Teodora discusses her TedX talk on Emodiversity, in Singapore in 2018 and the importance of understanding the full range of emotions, and how to healthfully process these emotions. She discusses how fear and anger helped humanity survive for all these years and the importance of increasing the positive pleasurable emotions like awe, compassion, joy, excitement, pride, positive anticipation. Emodiversity--3 Essences Speak the language of emotions and become fluent in vast array of emotions. Allow yourself to feel negative emotions & understand how it feels within your body. Choose how you want to feel and respond, while knowing what your strengths are. VIA Character Strengths Survey-- Free survey for youth and adults to understand your strengths and be a source to lean on during times of struggle. Atlas of Emotions-- Paul & Eve Eckman Awareness of key. She discusses a Mindfulness technique to bring attention to being present and grounded. Notice what your senses are in the moment (sights/sounds/smells/sensing) and what you are feeling. Focus on the here and now, being present in the moment.
