Do emotions make you uncomfortable? Do you sometimes wish they would just go away? Would you like to live with more ease and understanding of what you are feeling?

The Unopened Gift will forever change your relationship with emotions.

Emotional literacy is a term coined by the authors to describe a level of emotional understanding where emotions are part of our everyday common sense. In an emotionally literate world we would no longer see emotions as awkward or scary but as a tool we each possess to help navigate life. This book puts readers on a path that will result in a new understanding of emotions, and their purpose and role in living a life full of choice.

The Unopened Gift reveals what we have not yet understood about emotions. That emotions aren't in competition with reason, but are an essential part of thinking; that they are constantly giving us information about the world around us; that each emotion exists for a specific purpose and takes care of a particular aspect of life; that life without emotions would be like art without color.

Dan Newby and Lucy Nunez have written one of the most useful books on emotions that I have ever read. This book contains the most comprehensive catalogue of emotions and how we can understand them better that I have ever come across.

Emotions drive behaviors which determine results. That's why emotional literacy is absolutely critical for human learning and development. The Unopened Gift makes a broad spectrum of emotions easily available to readers who would like to take a first step toward emotional literacy.
