Increase your Emotional Intelligence (EQ) with Crystals and Aromatherapy





When I first took an Emotional Intelligence course (EQ) I learned a great deal about our EQ (Emotional Quotient) and that it is actually more important than your IQ. Emotional Intelligence is the capacity to be aware of, control, and express one's emotions, and to handle interpersonal relationships judiciously and empathetically.

  1. You can only control YOU not others.

  2. Leaders have higher EQ's than others

  3. Your Emotional Intelligence is more important for your success as a leader than your IQ.

  4. You have to become aware of your emotions, personality and triggers.

  5. You have to have an Emotional strategy for yourself.

  6. You have to be aware of others' emotions, personalities, dispositions and triggers.

  7. You have to have an emotional strategy of how to respond to others and situations instead of reacting (not being in control of your emotions)

Two of many strategies is that you can use crystals and/or aromatherapy to help manage your emotions. Why? Many Crystals attract positive energy and vibrations. Emotions are energy and attracting positive energy helps you to remain calm, peaceful, alert, etc. For example, I am listing some crystals and essential oils that can help increase your emotional intelligence by balancing and healing your emotions based on their properties.
