I Felt Emotionally Lost Until I read this book | Emotions Explained

I wasn’t emotionally strong. I didn’t understand why I reacted the way I did, why small things felt heavy, or why my emotions controlled me more than I controlled them.

And then… I read How Emotions Are Made by Lisa Feldman Barrett.
This book didn’t just explain emotions — it explained me.
It showed me that emotions aren’t fixed, they aren’t destiny, they aren’t something we’re trapped inside.
They’re constructed by the brain.
Predicted.
Shaped.
Built.

And if the brain can build them…
we can rebuild them.

In this video, I break down the most eye-opening ideas from the book — in a simple, emotional, and conversational way.
If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, misunderstood, disconnected from yourself, or unable to explain what’s happening inside you… this will help.

This isn’t just a book summary.
It’s a journey into the hidden life of your emotions —
why you feel the way you feel,
how your past shapes your reactions,
and how you can finally create an emotional world that makes sense.

Take a breath.
Sit with me.
Let’s decode your emotions together.
You’re not alone in this.
