A compelling and complete journey that delivers on its promise of giving us permission to feel. Marc Brackett shows us that emotional intelligence is not a gift but a skill--one that we can all learn, and benefit from immensely. - Angela Duckworth, Author of Grit Permission to Feel is a deeply insightful and compelling examination of one of the most important but ignored dimensions of the human experience. In his honest, funny, and illuminating way, Marc Brackett helps us to understand how emotions influence our health, performance, and overall well-being, and how we can leverage their power to transform our lives. - Vivek Murthy, MD, MBA. 19th Surgeon General of the United States There is a dire need for children and adults alike to cultivate emotion skills. Permission to Feel provides a framework for what parents and educators need to learn in order to support children in achieving social, academic, and life success. - Carmen Farina, Chancellor Emeritus, New York City Department of Education Brackett (Creating Emotionally Literate Classrooms), founding director of the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence and a professor at the Yale Child Study Center, examines how acknowledging one's emotions can create confidence and promote mental health in this provocative, accessible work. While Brackett focuses on educational and child-based applications for his methods, his wise principles can easily be applied to adult situations as well. Readers looking for strategies for responding to stress, particularly in children, will find much guidance in this cogent, welcoming work. - Publisher's Weekly In business, we are often pressured to withhold or suppress emotions, ultimately creating toxic environments and interpersonal conflict. In Permission to Feel, Marc Brackett teaches essential skills and tools for bringing our best selves forward. The results? Enhanced personal and professional outcomes, and healthier and more engaging workplaces. A must-read for every entrepreneur - and their investors. - Deborah Quazzo, Managing Partner GSV AcceleraTE Fund We often create a false dichotomy between thinking and feeling. In this dichotomy, thinking is important, strong, and adaptive, but feeling is not. Marc Brackett shows us how emotions-and our ability to feel, understand, and use them-are key to fulfilling our potential. - Carol Dweck, author of Mindset: The New Psychology of Success and Professor of Psychology, Stanford University Permission to Feel provides a framework for what parents and educators need to learn in order to support children in achieving social, academic, and life success. - Carmen Farina, New York City Department of Education

Brackett (Creating Emotionally Literate Classrooms), founding director of the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence and a professor at the Yale Child Study Center, examines how acknowledging one's emotions can create confidence and promote mental health in this provocative, accessible work. Brackett uses his own life story-he was bullied and sexually molested as a child-to demonstrate the toxicity of repression and how the openness and attention of his uncle eventually gave him permission to feel again. With a primary focus on helping adults teach children emotional intelligence, Brackett encourages readers to accept and evaluate their emotions (both positive and negative). He then explains his RULER technique-recognizing, understanding, labeling, expressing, and regulating emotion-and recommends adults teach these steps to children as a means for dealing with stress or trauma. He emphasizes that stress can negatively impede a child's creativity and memory and encourages negative behaviors such as poor diet and, eventually, smoking. While Brackett focuses on educational and child-based applications for his methods, his wise principles can easily be applied to adult situations as well. Readers looking for strategies for responding to stress, particularly in children, will find much guidance in this cogent, welcoming work. - Publisher's Weekly A compelling and complete journey that delivers on its promise of giving us permission to feel.
