Emotional intelligence is an important form of intelligence. There are six emotions to become aware of and to stay energized for life and as a humanist. The six feelings are of beauty, brilliance, belonging, gratitude, hope, and forgiveness. The speaker expounds and seeks the true meaning of these emotions and the meaning we attach to these emotions. Some exercises will be shared at the end on how to approach these feelings, and perhaps feel them.
