The title of this blog relates to a technique I have started using.
A while ago I took a six week course of CBT where I was first shown an emotion wheel to help me 'Name That Emotion'. I went home and googled emotion wheel and found the one to your right which has as lot more vocabulary.
The CBT work I was given tended to focus on Situation/feelings - Thoughts - Emotions. For example you will find the ABC Worksheet I was given @ this link: ABC Worksheet.
You will see the word feelings and emotions in the previous sentence. Do you think they are the same thing? I did, which confused me.
It is said they are different. How? Emotions are a bodily response and feelings are a mindful response to that emotion. You can read more about it here: Whats the Difference Between Feelings and Emotions.
