Hi Trish, Lynn and LC Good to have some fellow EL students in the Forum. I have just had returned my exercise booklets for tutorials 1, 2 and 3 and have signed up for tutorials 4 and 5, but before I start on these I am going to revise tutorials 1, 2 and 3. I have discovered that it is necessary to learn by heart the meaning and useful purposes of the Stepping Stones, but that it is also difficult to learn them by heart.
How are your studies going? I'm wondering if you have any tips to help learning by heart.

Frequently Asked Question's
/ Is Emotional Logic hard to learn? |
on: Nov 24th, 2008, 08:52am |
| Started by The Emotional Logic Centre | Post by The Emotional Logic Centre |
It isn’t that sort of learning. We also have various methods and materials to help with learning and using Emotional Logic.
When you get interested in something, because you can see how it applies to you, you just soak up the learning.
There are bits you could try learning by heart – then you can use it easily in your conversations. But first you need to understand what it means for you and those you love.

Frequently Asked Question's
/ Can it help to get rid of disturbing thoughts? |

Yes. It can help with many different types of distress. Again, we do recommend talking to people as part of the learning process, and that may include a doctor.
Emotional Logic can help you break down major disappointments into manageable small chunks – and then to spot the ones you can reasonably do something about.
It can also help you sort out what to do if you are worried you might upset others if you tried doing something differently.

Frequently Asked Question's
/ Is Emotional Logic for bereaved people? |
on: Nov 24th, 2008, 08:49am |
| Started by The Emotional Logic Centre | Post by The Emotional Logic Centre |
No. This process has been developed to help people cope with major disappointments in life, such as relationship splits and job losses. It helps them to see through their distress, overload and confusion, and to turn their emotional energy to useful purposes as they adjust.
After bereavement, people need to stay with the chaotic emotions for the first three to six months, rather than turn them to useful purposes.
Later, if their life is swamped by complicated emotions, Emotional Logic can help bereaved people to sort out what they need to do.

Frequently Asked Question's
/ How long does it take to learn Emotional Logic? |
on: Nov 24th, 2008, 08:48am |
| Started by The Emotional Logic Centre | Post by The Emotional Logic Centre |
The basic ideas can be understood very quickly – sometimes in just 20 minutes.
But how long it takes to learn to apply it to your life, or to the life of someone close to you, depends on the complexity of the life. The process of untangling a complex life is greatly helped by talking with someone who can help you to uncover the Hidden Losses – the ones you hadn’t previously recognised as a loss.

Frequently Asked Question's
/ How does Emotion and Logic mix? |
on: Nov 24th, 2008, 08:46am |
| Started by The Emotional Logic Centre | Post by The Emotional Logic Centre |
Some emotions are a part of how people adjust when they are faced with loss, or the risk of loss. But while those emotions might be painful or seem negative, they aren’t there just to spoil our lives. Different emotions actually give us the energy to make different sorts of adjustments to that loss.
Seen in that context, emotions make sense. They help you through the process of learning to adjust. It’s a logical process – and when you understand how they fit into that logical process, you can see your emotions in a different way and even use them to help you move on.

Frequently Asked Question's
/ Can I learn Emotional Logic by reading books? |
on: Nov 24th, 2008, 08:45am |
| Started by The Emotional Logic Centre | Post by The Emotional Logic Centre |
The short answer is yes you can learn about it, however Emotional Logic is designed to improve the way you listen and talk in situations that are emotionally demanding or difficult. It helps you to understand what is happening, and then to decide what to do.
To learn that takes practice – you need to actually do it.
So you can learn about Emotional Logic by reading about it, but to make good use of it you will find that talking to others helps greatly.

Frequently Asked Question's
/ Do I have to join a course or a group? |
on: Nov 24th, 2008, 08:43am |

No.
There are various ways to learn, use and benefit from Emotional Logic.
You can use EL on your own by having one of our Activity Packs. To learn more about these go to our website.
You can also learn Emotional Logic one-to-one with a tutor. Or you can see a tutor with a close friend or family members, so all your conversations will then include this new understanding about emotions. We call these Personal Learning Appointments.
If you are interested in learning more indepth information about EL then you should consider our Distance Learning scheme.
Alternatively, joining a regular group of about eight people helps you to see that every individual has the same sort of emotions – but in a pattern that’s unique to them.
You can get the same insight by attending an Emotional Logic course, with a dozen or more people, but we do warn that courses sometimes don’t allow enough time to look at students’ individual situations.
