Understanding Emotions:

Happiness, sadness, fear, surprise, disgust, and anger. There are so many feelings that we experience in our lives, and sometimes they can even get all tangled together. All emotions exist for a reason, even the ones that donโ€™t feel good or that we do not enjoy. For example, no one likes feeling afraid, but if fear doesnโ€™t exist, we might put ourselves in danger without realizing it. Emotions are trying to tell us something. They serve as information to prepare us to act, help us survive, manage relationships, and are part of the decision-making process. Maybe your fear is telling you that it is time to ask for help, or your happiness is telling you to keep learning more about a new hobby. If we can learn to be curious about our emotions instead of being afraid of them, we can manage them better. All emotions are okay, but not all decisions are. Next time you notice a big emotional shift, slow down and try to understand what your emotion might be telling you before you act.

We have a misplaced exhibit from fair last week. Please look through your fair items to see if it got mixed up with your county fair treasures. If so, it can be returned to the extension office. This artist exhibitor would appreciate its return!!
