There are times in life when we notice that something is not going as it should. It may be from having suffered an objective traumatic experience or simply from having a diffuse feeling of not being happy, but in both cases we face the danger of being drawn into a tunnel of darkness from which it is difficult to get out without help. For this reason, knowing how to detect the signs that things are not going well and acquiring tools to heal emotional wounds gives us autonomy to continue with our lives.

We will not always be able to control our emotions, but if we learn strategies to be more aware of what we feel and have enough lucidity to react in the best possible way, we will go a long way. This book is a personal adventure of self-knowledge to understand what our fears, anxieties or traumas are, both personal and in our relationships or at work, and find techniques to solve internal conflicts, overcome suffering and have a fuller life.


Good emotional health begins with identifying our emotions, acknowledging them, and learning to manage them. It's also not a bad idea to take a closer look at the essential mechanisms of the human brain. With these two bases, we can focus on how to acquire skills to improve everything that goes wrong in our lives.

Whether it is mourning the loss of a loved one, an anxiety disorder, a childhood attachment problem, affective difficulties, having burnout syndrome or any other threat to our life project, emotional intelligence is a weapon powerful that will help us face traumatic events and walk our path without losing our minds.
