Corey Jackson: Negative Emotions | Sero Boost #3

Everyone must have felt those unpleasant and unhappy emotions, or as we label them negative emotions, at least a few times in our lives, if not many. To manage our level of happiness, it's important for us to understand how those emotions work from a scientific perspective. Once we understand how they work and how they can affect our lives, we can learn to effectively deal with them.
In this episode of Sero Boost: The Happiness Science Insights Podcast, host Lu Ngo is joined by Corey Jackson, who shares his expertise on negative emotions and how to manage them. Corey is a self-care & stress management coach, burnout prevention coach, and mental health researcher. His Ph.D. research work underlies the causes of anxiety, depression, and emotional dysfunction. His research is the culmination of a degree in Psychology and Sanskrit plus more than twenty years of studying and translating Buddhist philosophy from Tibetan to English. Comfortable in a research lab or mountain monastery, Corey’s work and research sit at the intersection of scientific and contemplative traditions. These days, he works as a meditation teacher, emotion, and stress management coach.
With his expertise, Corey sheds light on the science behind negative emotions and how they affect our level of happiness. An interesting insight that most of us might miss is the fact that negative emotions are sign posts to help us identify important things that we need to pay attention to in our lives. We actually need to have negative emotions in our lives to not only enjoy the positive ones, but also reason our way through different challenges in lives. He shares tips on how we can take a different angle on identifying and addressing these tough emotions in a way that helps us to thrive.
