"Teaching people how to regulate their emotions is crime prevention. It's addiction prevention. It's suicide prevention.
It's generaltional healing. It's how we stop raising adults who explode, implode or shut down at the first sign of discomfort.
​
Emotional regulation is not just a soft skill. It's survival. It's the foundation of a society where people can disagree without dehumanizing each other, where accountability isn't seen as an attack, and where conflict doesn't always have to mean violence.
​
You want a better world? Start with emotional education."
