Emotional Logic

Emotional Logic is a programme designed to improve emotional literacy and reduce depression and anxiety. It is a conversation based tool that can be used with:

• Targeted pupils who are experiencing anger, depression, anxiety or self-harm
• All pupils as part of the wider PSHE curriculum
• Staff to support areas of workload, work-life balance or conflict resolution

Emotional Logic helps people of all ages to understand how all emotions have useful purposes, including the unpleasant ones when seen as part of an integrated process of adjusting to change, disappointment, setback or hurt. Emotional Logic moves people beyond current mindfulness strategies of creating a calming ‘safe place’, towards taking reasonable actions with others to address the root of issues and move forward.
