Our emotions affect our creativity, learning and problem solving, but also our physical health and our mental health. Feel Better Live More Bitesize is my weekly podcast for your mind, body, and heart.  Each week I’ll be featuring inspirational stories and practical tips from some of my former guests. Today’s clip is from episode 179 of the podcast with Professor Marc Brackett, the founding director of the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence. Emotions matter more than we think, and, in this clip, Marc explains why being able to understand our own and other’s feelings can have a profound impact on our lives.
