5s
when
we
hear
the
word
'emotion',
most
of
us
think
of
love,
hate,
happiness
or
fear
11s
those
strong
feelings
we
experience
throughout
life
15s
our
emotions
are
the
driving
force
behind
many
of
our
behaviours:
helpful,
and
unhelpful
20s
just
where
do
our
emotions
come
from?
24s
our
brain
is
wired
to
look
for
threats
or
rewards
28s
if
one
is
detected,
the
feeling
region
of
the
brain
alerts
us
through
the
release
of
chemical
messages
34s
emotions
are
the
effect
of
these
chemical
messages,
travelling
from
our
brain
through
the
body
41s
when
our
brain
detects
a
potential
threat,
our
brain
releases
the
stress
hormones
adrenalin
and
cortisol
48s
which
prepare
us
for
a
fight
or
flight
response
52s
when
we
detect
or
experience
something
rewarding,
such
as
someone
doing
something
nice
for
you
58s
our
brain
releases
dopamine,
oxytocin,
or
seratonin
-
these
are
the
chemicals
that
make
us
feel
good
65s
and
motivate
us
to
continue
on
the
task
or
behaviour
69s
in
these
instances,
the
feeling
region
of
the
brain
kicks
in
before
the
thinking
part
74s
sometimes
the
reactions
of
the
feeling
brain
are
so
strong
that
it
dominates
our
behaviours
79s
and
we're
unable
to
think
rationally
in
the
moment:
our
emotions
hijack
our
brain
86s
while
many
of
our
emotional
responses
happen
subconsciously,
our
thinking
can
influence
our
emotions
92s
and
sometimes
this
can
be
unhelpful
95s
just
thinking
about
something
threatening
can
trigger
an
emotional
response
99s
this
is
where
we
can
manage
our
emotions
with
conscious
thinking
104s
our
emotions
play
a
powerful
role
in
the
way
we
experience
the
world
108s
understanding
and
regulating
our
emotions
through
our
thoughts
and
behaviours
112s
can
help
us
take
greater
control
of
our
brain,
and
achieve
our
goals
