The degree of pleasantness or unpleasantness that you experience with each emotion is the salt of life. Behavioral and cognitive responses vary based on the individual’s environment and culture. Today, most experts agree that with each emotion, a few different responses occur.įirst of all, a neurophysiological response occurs, triggered by hormones and neurotransmitters, which then manifests in a behavioral response (such as a gesture) and a cognitive response, which is what makes us aware of how we’re feeling. To simplify this a bit, emotions represent a biological tendency to react in a determined way to certain stimuli, which can also be learned from our environment. Even if we’ve felt nervous or anxious before, not everyone is aware that poor regulation of these emotions can lead to an emotional block or even an illness. Emotions are reactions that we all experience – joy, sadness, fear, anger… Although we’re all familiar with emotions, this doesn’t make them any less complex when you stop for a second to analyze them.
