One of the ideas I share with clients is about how we COPE - our Chosen Outlets for Powerful Emotions that we are experiencing.

Sometimes we can be carrying around the burden of overwhelming, powerful emotions - for example, guilt. We may feel pressured to behave in a particular way, and self punishment can begin to build. This is about looking about how you COPE, digging deeper to consider what emotions we are struggling with and have the opportunity to find healthy releases for these emotions. Emotional and mental health are closely linked, and its a running theme throughout my coaching programme.

What about you - are there emotions that you are carrying with you in everyday life? How do you COPE?
