Yeah, there's a beauty to it. And, you know, it is a tool. It is one kind of shifter that has to be obviously used in the appropriate context. All of our sensory modalities are powerful tools for... I would argue relatively effortlessly shifting our emotions.

And I think that's really important because people often think that regulating our emotions is hard work to the extent that they believe you can regulate your emotions at all. We'll talk about that a little bit too, I'm sure. But, you know, self-control, emotion regulation, like let me roll up my sleeves and really kind of get in there.

Yes, it can at times be extraordinarily difficult to manage our emotions. And some of the tools that we have are effortful. One example would be expressive writing, this wonderful tool for working through problematic experiences. You sit down, just let yourself go for 15 to 20 minutes a day for one to three days. This is the Pennebaker. This is the Pennebaker writing effect.

This is just a remarkably wonderful side effect-free, you could argue, intervention for helping you deal with curveballs that life throws at you.

We actually just re, um, restarted, uh, a prestigious speaker series at Michigan, the Katz Newcomb speaker series, which is, um, designed to honor luminaries in the field. And we actually kicked it off with Jamie coming to speak about his extraordinary work. Um, Because this is really a gift, I think, not just to the field, but humanity. And the but though here is that it's an effortful tool.

It takes 15 minutes to use. There is nothing wrong with that. Lots of things that we do in life are effortful. But we also know that We don't like exerting effort as a species. We like to conserve our resources as much as possible. So if there are easy things you could do as well, it's good to know about what those are. And these sensory shifters, music, looking at images, right?
