Host(s): Dr. Susan Buttross, Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Mississippi Medical Center, and Abram NanneyTopic: Emotions: Feeling total joy or extreme happiness are emotions that make life wonderful but those of anxiety, sadness, anger and fear are feelings that can make life difficult. What if we could control those negative reactions? What if we could take charge of the emotions that may be damaging our health. It’s possible to control at least the length and intensity of those negative emotions. Today we’ll work to better understand why all emotions have a purpose and what we can do to help control the negative ones.You can join the conversation by sending an email to: family@mpbonline.org.
