→Sociology of emotions
Journaling can increase one's emotional intelligence. The University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences notes: "Journaling can help you make sense of how you’re feeling about a certain person or situation that is troubling or inspiring you. It can also help you understand your triggers. The process of writing down your thoughts as honestly and with as little judgment as possible allows for self-discovery. When you get to know yourself better, you develop a deeper understanding of your reactions, strengths, and weaknesses, as well as what environments help you thrive."<ref>[https://www.usa.edu/blog/ways-journaling-benefits-students/ 10 Ways Journaling Benefits Students], University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences</ref>

=== Emotions, cognitive therapy and emotion-focused coping ===
''See also:'' [[Cognitive therapy]] and [[Emotion-focused coping]]
[[Cognitive therapy]] is a form of psychotherapy, developed by Dr. Aaron T. Beck,<ref>[http://www.beckinstitute.org/what-is-cognitive-behavioral-therapy/?gclid=CKyrmaCBwa0CFUQRNAod1yK9AA What Is Cognitive Therapy?] - The Beck Institute</ref> that emphasizes the important role of thinking in how we feel and what we do.
Also called cognitive-behavioral therapy' (CBT), it is "based on the idea that our [[thought]]s cause our [[feelings]] and [[behavior]]s, not external things, like people, situations, and events."<ref>[http://www.nacbt.org/whatiscbt.htm What is Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy?] National Association of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapists</ref>
The theory is that [[depression]] and [[anxiety]] are caused by negative thinking patterns.<ref>Cognitive therapists believe that these negative thinking patterns actually cause you to feel depressed and anxious. [http://www.spiritsite.com/writing/davbur/part2.shtml David Burns]</ref> or cognitive distortions, such as jumping to conclusions, all or nothing thinking, and "Catastrophizing".<ref>[http://healthymind.com/s-distortions.html Cognitive Distortions] - [[David C. Bissette]], Psy.D., CSAT</ref>
[[Emotion-focused coping]] is "a stress management technique that involves regulating negative emotional reactions to a stressor, rather than [[Problem solving|directly addressing the problem]] causing the stress. It's often used when a person feels the stressor is beyond their ability to change, focusing instead on managing their feelings about the situation.<ref>
