| | + | [[Emotional regulation]] refers to the mental processes by which individuals influence which [[emotion]]s they have, when they have them, and how they personally experience and express these emotions. It's a core aspect of [[emotional intelligence]] and mental health, enabling people to adapt to situations, maintain personal and business relationships, and achieve their personal [[Goal setting|goals]].<ref>[https://grok.com/share/c2hhcmQtNA%3D%3D_3bd517c1-3fba-4adc-9fa1-5675b61a9576 What is emotional regulation?]</ref> |

| | + | |
| | + | [[Emotional detachment]] is the ability to separate oneself from strong emotions. |
| | + | |
| | + | Emotional detachment can be practiced through techniques such as: learning to master emotions (See also: [[Self-regulation]]), redirecting one's focus rather than [[Obsessive thinking|obsessing]] about an issue/person (Focusing on [[personal development]], strengthening [[friendship]]/relationships or [[Social networking|developing new relationships]] and practicing [[gratitude]]), [[Mindfulness (Psychology)|mindfulness]], increasing [[self-awareness]], engaging in [[positive thinking]] and not caring what [[Negative thinking|negative]] or [[Toxic personality traits|toxic people]] think, [[Assertiveness|assertively]] setting healthy boundaries (Communication boundaries and limiting contact), increasing one's [[mental toughness]] and [[Psychological resilience|psychological resiliency]], [[forgiveness]] and engaging in [[self-care]] (For example, [[Stress management]] techniques). Specifically, it's a mental process that involves recognizing and accepting thoughts and feelings without letting them overwhelm you, and it can be a helpful tool for managing difficult emotions and difficult relationships. |
| | + | |
| | + | Emotional detachment is often helpful for gaining additional [[objectivity]] when engaging [[problem solving]] or when dealing with difficult people. Frustration, [[fear]] and anger takes resources away from the executive decision making of the prefrontal cortex part of the [[brain]].<ref>[http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/leading-emotional-intelligence/201104/where-did-my-iq-points-go Where did my IQ points go?]</ref> |
