Synopsis

Emotional Literacy fosters emotional health by teaching us "to put our heads back in our hearts, where they have always belonged." To be emotionally literate is to be able to feel and understand not only the full range of emotions, but the emotions appropriate to the actual situations in which we find ourselves moment by moment. Anger, fear, forgiveness, and love--all take on mew meaning when we are emotionally literate. By cultivating "a well read heart" we experience healing and come to know what is at the heart of all emotions--and that is joy! This is a reprint of a book first published in 1997, and soon thereafter translated into Portuguese in Brazil.
