What and how

In general, we're not so good at feeling, but we're experts in thinking and doing. Now it's time to work on your feelings. What role do emotions play in this? And what is your body saying, what signals is it giving off? Your body gives you a lot of information, so use it. Your body never lies, whether or not you're used to consciously listening to it. You'll see that at the end of this self-awareness training you'll be able to better express how you feel, so that you can better manage your behavior.

In this training you'll work on your self-awareness. You're aware of what you think, do, and feel: the core of mindfulness. Being mindful means that you're exactly the middle of the triangle of feeling, thinking, and doing. Your feelings, thoughts, and behavior are in balance. In this training you will also work on your self-awareness while making choices. You'll see that after completing this training you will get better and better at answering the question "How do I really feel?"

What will I learn?
"Tomorrow will be the first time in a long time that I'm going to play in a tennis final. I feel the tension of the build-up to the competition in my body completely. It's wonderful. I almost forgot how addictive this competitive tension can be, the effect it has on your feelings. You can't compare it to anything else."

How you feel, determines how you're doing. That's why it's good to be aware of this, which is what you're going to learn in this learning journey. A certain degree of tension in the form of healthy stress is necessary in order to perform well. A tennis player can turn this healthy tension into a good performance, for example.

What will I do?
In order to be able to give a truly good answer to the question "How do I really feel?", you need a lot of practice. Your body's signals give you a good indication of "a vague feeling" or "knowing for sure that everything is fine," for example. With a vague feeling you can't exactly explain what you're feeling, but you know something isn't right. Your gut feeling gives you important information. In everyday situations, your body often gives you signals before you are even aware of them. Through various exercises, this training will teach you to recognize these signals earlier and to listen to your feelings. This will help you make better choices and have more control over your behavior.
