Knowledge bite on Feelings work

Feelings and emotions are part of our everyday life. Sometimes, we are supposed to show them, often we are supposed to hide them – in other words to control them. However, we are not formally trained to understand our feelings. This makes it hard to know what to do with our feelings or the feelings of others, for example students. Students sometimes approach you with problems that come from feelings they do not understand or are even unaware of. How can you help?

This workshop will give you a theoretical framework which we will use to bust some outdated myths about feelings. We will introduce some simple exercises that will help you become aware of your feelings. Getting in touch with your feelings will empower you to take students on the path of understanding their feelings. Study adviser Matthijs Kool will provide this meeting.
