Joyful feelings of a person. What are the feelings for a painting?

Human emotions- This evaluative attitude personality to emerging phenomena. Human emotions have not been studied well enough, so there are often different definitions of this phenomenon from different authors. But we can express a general statement according to which emotions are regulators of activity that reflect the meaning of an existing or possible situation in an individual’s life. Based on this, a person’s emotions give rise to experiences of joy, fear, pleasure and other feelings. Human emotions, by themselves, may not give rise to experience; their main task is the internal regulation of activity.

Emotions have undergone a long evolution; they have developed from simple innate instinctive processes (organic and motor changes) into more complex processes that have lost their instinctive basis, but are tied to a specific situation. That is, complex emotional processes began to express an individual evaluative attitude towards circumstances and their direct participation in them.

They determine vital primary emotions that ensure a person’s survival. These include pain, rage, and others similar.

Emotions in a person’s life have an indescribable meaning. So, thanks to interest, surprise, sadness, joy, fear, people transmit information. Their expression is accompanied by bodily manifestations - gestures, facial expressions, changes in skin color (redness, paleness).

Emotions in human life are regulators social activity and its guides. A person without emotions becomes empty and uninteresting. He stops seeing the meaning in everything he does, so he becomes apathetic and detached. Sometimes such an apathetic state takes over a person, but returns over time good mood, which moves him forward.

Emotions in a person’s life act as signals. With their help, the current state of the body is displayed. If observed positive emotions, it means he is happy with everything, negative ones indicate dissatisfaction of some needs.

Emotions protect the body from overload and preserve internal energy. Every emotional state signals something. So, when experiencing stress, a person’s activity decreases, thereby leaving energy for doing something more important.

The influence of emotions on a person is very diverse. They affect. A person experiencing positive emotions, such as joy, views the world from an optimistic point of view. Those who experience suffering or see evil intentions and negativity in everything.

Emotions have an impact on mental processes. Thus, a person under stress cannot remember events appearance people, he mixes up all the facts and does not understand what is true and what he could have made up.

The influence of emotions on a person is reflected in his studies and work. If he gets to work with interest, then he will act quickly and without getting tired.

The emotional state influences. A person's strong emotions make him uncontrollable; he may not even understand what he is doing. For example, in a state (of an extremely strong emotional state) a person is capable of murder, he can do something completely unusual for him.

Types of human emotions

The role of any emotion in a person’s life cannot be overestimated. People may be from different cultures, brought up differently, live in different corners world, differ in appearance, speak different languages, but they all have the same emotions and express the same person’s attitude towards a certain situation or object. Even animals understand some human emotions. For example, when a person is happy and laughs, the dog also begins to show his joy by dancing around the person and wagging his tail. If a person is sad, the dog calmly lies down next to him. These processes have not been properly studied, but it is a fact.

There are many types of human emotions and they can change each other very quickly. For example, a person is in one state and suddenly a certain stimulus acts on him, and he critically changes his attitude to the situation. A person can in an instant, being in a cheerful mood, switch to a gloomy one, or, conversely, under the influence of an event that has occurred, switch from a sad state to a joyful one.

A person is capable of experiencing opposing feelings regarding one individual, and at the same time. Emotions, exciting people, are instantly reflected on his face, so it is very difficult to hide them. People may try to hide their true feelings, their facial expressions, but there are other factors through which one can determine what a person is experiencing - this is posture, facial expressions, gait, gestures and others.

All emotions are divided into positive human emotions, neutral and negative human emotions.

Positive emotions of people are joy, delight, confidence, satisfaction, tenderness, trust, admiration, sympathy, love, gratitude, tenderness, relief, bliss.

Negative human emotions are sadness, despair, anxiety, displeasure, melancholy, grief, resentment, fear, annoyance, regret, indignation, hostility, anger, insult, uncertainty, distrust, rage, disgust, contempt, disappointment, impatience.

Neutral ones include indifference, amazement, and curiosity.

Every human emotion creates a certain resonance, and everything that is around the individual begins to absorb this state. IN to a greater extent This refers to people, but thanks to some research, it has become known that animals and plants are also able to respond to different types emotional states.

All people can experience basic emotions, but not everyone can experience a wider range of them. Such people are called “thick-skinned” in everyday life. They are not very sensitive and cannot fully appreciate their feelings, they find it difficult to identify them.

There is a separate type of emotion called affect. Affect is a strong emotional state during which rational thinking is switched off and at that moment a person begins to act stereotypically. It is expressed in numbness, flight.

Emotions prepare a person for certain actions. For example, when a person finds himself in critical stressful circumstances, he develops certain emotional and physiological reactions. Thus, in a state of fear, a person’s body may become numb, but it may also prepare to flee.

If a person is sad, then he has a sluggish gait, drooping shoulders and corners of his mouth. In a state of aggression, a person takes a defensive position, the body becomes a shield, the back straightens, the whole body tenses. IN extreme situation When there is a threat to life, the blood in the body thickens and in case of injury, severe loss of blood can be avoided. When a person experiences joy, he produces hormones that can protect the body and strengthen overall tone.

Various emotional states affect cardiovascular system. Long-term stress can disrupt the normal functioning of the heart and lead to hypertension. Blood circulation also depends on the general condition.

Positive emotions of people affect blood flow to the skin and breathing rhythm. If a person experiences prolonged stress, he may experience breathing problems.

Negative emotions of a person have a very negative effect on him and provoke various diseases.

People's positive emotions have a positive effect on sound sleep, improving general condition. An optimistic lifestyle has a positive effect on health, so you need to think positively in any case.

Another group of emotional states is represented by affects. Affects are strong human emotions, accompanied by active actions to resolve acute, extreme, conflict or stressful situation. Affect occurs suddenly and is expressed in temporary disorganization (narrowing) of consciousness and acute activation of impulse reactions. They can appear in various forms.

Fear is a form of affect, it is a reflex reaction that serves as a biological defense mechanism psyche. The main manifestations of fear are flight, screaming, grimacing, decrease or strong increase muscle tone, body tremors, increased heart rate, increased blood pressure, dry mouth, intestinal disorders, etc.

A person's anger can also lead to a state of passion. Anger is manifested in a raised tone of voice, reaching the point of screaming, an attacking posture and threatening facial expressions.

The state of disappointment is less emotionally charged to lead to affect, but sometimes it does happen.

Human feelings and emotions

A person's feelings and emotions are strongly related to internal personal qualities. They reflect everything that a person lives by, what happens inside him. A person is often afraid to express his own emotions or denies them, and may confuse them with feelings. Some are not aware of them at all; it is difficult for them to say something in response to the question of what they are experiencing. But this does not mean that these people are insensitive. This means that we need to figure out what is the reason for this state, why a person is not able to determine how he feels about a person, how he feels about a certain event or phenomenon. A person who cannot identify his emotions and feelings is not capable of solving life's problems.

For many people, what they are experiencing or feeling remains unknown, but they are more concerned about the reasons for their feelings. The causes of many conditions and feelings are social. Due to active development society, new emotions appear or are given new meaning. For example, a person is not able to feel some feelings after birth, but can learn later from his immediate environment. WITH early childhood parents and friends teach the child to express their emotions, encourage them to show their feelings, tell them what emotions and in what situations can be expressed, and when it is better to restrain oneself. When a person is unable, for some reason, to experience the range of feelings that capture everyone except him, then he is considered selfish and insensitive.

Emotions and feelings can express the same thing, for example, a person can feel an emotion and a feeling of joy. Emotions appear when a need arises and end immediately after this need is satisfied; feelings are objective in nature. Satisfying thirst, hunger and other needs is associated with the emotion of joy. The feeling of satisfaction is directly related to one irreplaceable object, for example, a person wants to drink coffee, but there is only tea, but it will not replace coffee, it will not provide the satisfaction that a person expects from coffee. Feelings manifest themselves exclusively towards some object; if it is absent, then they do not arise.

Feelings can be nurtured and developed. There are levels of human feelings - from practical ones, such as satisfaction or property, to sublime feelings that stand out along with spiritual ideals and values.

Feelings developed historically, and in different eras one phenomenon could cause people different attitude. Also, feelings are influenced by culture and religion. Therefore, to the same object in people different nations opposite feelings arise. For example, in European countries a woman can walk around in shorts quite freely, short skirt and a T-shirt, this is considered the norm. If a woman in this form walks near Muslim believers, this will cause indignation and contempt in them, since their religion and culture do not allow a woman’s body to be open.

In a person’s life, practical feelings are formed that are directly related to his activities. IN theoretical activities intellectual feelings are formed that are associated with cognitive activity(curiosity, interest, surprise). In relation to the development of figurative-selective activity, aesthetic ones arose, such as a sense of harmony and beauty, admiration.

Moral feelings include conscience, the experience of guilt, duty, solidarity, justice, nobility. Thanks to moral feelings, a person expresses his feelings and attitude towards others. They also distinguish spiritual feelings, which include feelings of holiness, enlightenment, reverence, and mysticism.

The diversity of an individual’s feelings reflects his system of values, needs and the essence of personality. Regarding the outside world, a person wants to act in such a way as to be positively disposed towards it. Therefore, feelings, unlike emotions, can be independently regulated.

When a person experiences a strong, sustained, positive feeling about something that arises from an unsatisfied need, he feels passion. Passion is a strong emotional state that is poorly controlled by a person, and not every person can cope with it.

Emotional states vary in their sign (positive or negative), intensity, depth, duration of influence and significance of the reflection in reality (deep and shallow).

Feelings and emotions can be sthenic or asthenic, depending on the impact on activity. Stenic ones activate a person, encourage activity, mobilize resources and strength, these include joy, interest, and inspiration. Asthenic relaxes and fetters forces, for example, a person’s negative emotions, humiliation, guilt, and depression.

The emotional tone of a sensation shows a person’s attitude to the quality of feelings. That is, a certain phenomenon or stimulus is responsible for a person’s condition. For example, the sound of the sea, the sound of a log cracking in a fire, the sight of a sunset, and the like. Some irritants can cause idiosyncrasy in a person - a painful aversion to certain individually intolerable sounds, smells, tastes.

Emotional response is a quick reaction to changes in external environment. For example, a person saw beautiful flower- I was amazed, I heard loud thunder - I was scared. An emotional response expresses a person's emotional excitability. There is a type of emotional response known as syntony; it manifests itself in a person’s ability to be responsive to other people and respond to phenomena and changes in phenomena in the world around them. Syntony is expressed through a state of harmony between a person and nature, in the ability to understand and accept the experiences and feelings of others.

Emotional stability is manifested in the stability of a person’s behavior in a variety of situations, in stability in the face of different life's difficulties, showing tolerance towards other people. The predominance of positive or negative emotions in human experience, forms a corresponding stable mood in a person.

There is also a connection between emotions, feelings and... Emotions can cause certain behavioral acts, like motivation, and accompany the motivation itself, while experiencing certain feelings. For example, food is not only motivation, but also a source of satisfaction, and the very process in which a person eats is accompanied by the emotion of joy. Motivation is “turned on” with the help of internal processes body and focuses on suppressing internal imbalances. Unlike motivation, emotion is a response to external processes and is directed to an external source of information.

In nature there is such a phenomenon as. A person with alexithymia is said to be a person without emotions. Such people cross out both emotions and feelings from their lives. Instead, they engage in reflection. Alexithymics believe that it is important to understand, and not live it, wasting time on unnecessary experiences. They never feel anything, or at least they say so; it is difficult for them to understand themselves and identify their sensations.

If a person is healthy, then he experiences feelings and experiences emotions. Since the outside world influences a person, it means that he must respond to these influences in some way, therefore all a person’s actions and thoughts have an emotional connotation, which is a sign of a mentally healthy person.

Alexithymia is formed mainly in childhood, when adults, in the process of raising their children, themselves act in such a way as to cause this disorder. They interfere with the full formation of emotions and feelings in children, since they themselves have problems expressing them. While other parents encourage their children to express their feelings, alexithymics are unable to teach this to their own children, as they themselves have difficulty recognizing and expressing their feelings. In most cases, alexithymia occurs in men. Since they are taught from childhood that they are not obliged to cry or reveal their true feelings, but to keep everything to themselves or not even allow themselves any feelings.

Alexithymia can develop not only in childhood, but also in adulthood. This occurs due to stressful experiences accompanied by strong emotions. If a person is unable to realize and experience his emotions, a certain barrier appears to them; he does not allow them to reach his consciousness, blocks and ignores them. It turns out that a person guards himself from internal experiences due to the inability to share them with someone or properly work through them.

There are people who quite consciously turn off their emotions. They explain this by saying that it is easier and much more profitable to live this way. So, for example, these people can freely “go over their heads”, despite the fact that this makes other people feel bad. They do not feel pity for people if they have hurt them, they simply insensitively use them for personal gain. They organize their lives to the fullest, do what is important to them first and foremost. But over time, a certain understanding comes that it was necessary to live differently. This happens when a person realizes all the pain that he caused to others, when his loved ones leave him, and he cannot do anything about it. It is very important to understand all this in time and stop being an insensitive person.

Tags: Meditation exercises and techniques, Managing emotions, Psychotechniques and exercises

Hello dear reader. In order to show the relevance of our conversation today, I want you to stop reading the article for a few moments and answer the question: “What emotions are you feeling? at the moment are you experiencing?
Have you thought about it? Did you answer?

Now let's see what problems often arise when answering this question.

• Many people answer this question in the following way: “Yes, I don’t feel any particular emotions right now, everything is fine.” Does this mean that there really are no emotions? Or does this simply mean that the person is poorly aware of his emotional state? The fact is that a person always experiences emotions, every moment of his life. Sometimes they reach high intensity, and sometimes their intensity is low. Many people pay attention only to strong emotional experiences, and do not attach any importance to low-intensity emotions and even do not notice them at all. However, if emotions are not very strong, this does not mean that they are absent.
• Another possible answer to the question posed is: “Somehow I feel unpleasant. I feel uncomfortable." We see that the person is aware that there are unpleasant emotions inside, but he cannot name which ones. Maybe it's irritation, or maybe disappointment or guilt, or maybe something else.
• Often our question is answered like this: “I feel like it’s time for me to get up from my computer and get to work” or “I feel like this article could be useful to me.” Many people confuse their emotions with thoughts and desire to do something. Trying to describe their emotional state, they describe everything except emotions.

Meditation exercise for understanding emotions

When working with clients I often use meditative exercise, which helps you better understand your own emotions. It is so effective that I decided to make an audio recording so that anyone could use this technique. The mechanism of action of the exercise is based on the connection between emotions and bodily reactions. Any, even the most insignificant, emotion is reflected in the body (read more about this). By learning to listen to your own bodily reactions, you can become more familiar with your emotions.

You can do the exercise right now. Here's the entry:

Once you have learned what emotions are and have easily learned to describe your inner state, you may be interested in exploring yourself more deeply. For example, you may want to figure out which positive meaning may carry emotions that, at first glance, are absolutely meaningless and even harmful. Read about this in the next

It's no secret that emotions play an important role in our lives. When communicating with people, you can probably notice that people show emotions in different ways and share their feelings.

Emotions are an adaptive mechanism that is inherent in us by nature to assess the situation. After all, a person does not always have time when he can correctly and accurately assess what is happening to him. Let’s say in a situation of danger... And then once - I felt something and there is a feeling that I either “like” or “don’t like”.

Moreover, the emotional assessment is the most accurate - nature cannot deceive. Emotional assessment occurs very quickly and reason and logic are not “mixed” here. After all, you can logically explain anything and give a bunch of all sorts of rational arguments.

Watching people (including myself), I notice that there are situations in which people either ignore their emotions, or try not to notice them, or simply are not aware of them. I will not now make assumptions about the reasons for this, I will only say that without listening to oneself, to one’s emotional life, a person cannot adequately and most fully perceive the situation, and thereby make the most effective decision.

In ordinary life, this can manifest itself in the fact that by ignoring or repressing his emotions, a person can create an incorrect belief for himself. For example, if a wife ignores/does not realize or does not want to admit her anger towards her husband, she may take out her irritation on another person or children, in a completely different situation.

Or, I had a client who had the following belief: “I cannot offend a person, upset him.” As it turned out, if a person gets angry, then she will experience a feeling of guilt that she did not want to face.

In my consultations, I very often encounter the emotional sphere. I once noticed that sometimes it is very difficult for people to say what they really feel or what emotion they are experiencing right now. Even if a person realizes that he has some kind of feeling now, sometimes it is very difficult to say it in words, to name it.

One of my clients told me this: “I feel a GOOD feeling, but I don’t know what it’s called...”.

And I decided to fill this gap on the pages of my site. Below is a list of emotions and feelings that I managed to find, I hope that by reading it you can significantly increase your awareness of what may be happening to you.

And, by the way, you can test yourself: before you look at the list, I suggest you compose it yourself, and then compare how complete your list is...

Perceiving the world around us, a person expresses his personal attitude towards various objects and phenomena in a unique way. And these are not just judgments, but special complex experiences that are accessible to all of us thanks to a complex of different emotions. Human emotions are one of the most important components of personality, fulfilling biological and social functions: make a proactive reflection of reality, play a key role in the formation of relationships with other people.

Human emotions and feelings create a multi-level and multi-dimensional world of emotional phenomena. They characterize a person, reflecting the complexity of his interaction with the outside world. Without understanding yourself, it is impossible to understand others. Developed emotional intelligence creates the possibility of deep relationships with other people, where the highest manifestation of the emotional sphere of the individual is the ability to empathy - penetration into the inner world of another through the identification mechanism.

Emotions are states that are associated with assessing the significance of factors acting on a person and determining the satisfaction of current needs. They can be an internal indicator of goal achievement. The emotional sphere of a person is very diverse. To better understand it, you should know that emotional phenomena, according to their complexity, can be divided into several levels.

• Emotional tone of sensations. This is the most basic simple form emotions in the form of fuzzy sensations, a genetically determined experience that does not relate to a specific object, but accompanies vital impressions (taste, pain, temperature). Gives a person different emotional shades.
• Actually emotions. These are fairly specific states that arise in connection with the satisfaction of needs. They characterize a person’s attitude towards current or possible situations. Among them are the basic emotions inherent in humans. For example, it could be excitement, joy, surprise, suffering, anger, shame. Their different combinations create complex emotions or feelings: anxiety, depression, love.
• Mood . This is a form of emotion that does not relate to a specific object or event, but has sufficient persistence and can act as an indicator of temperament. The main sign of mood is positive or negative tone.
• Feelings . These are persistent emotional attitudes towards certain aspects of reality. They are the highest product cultural and emotional development person. Feelings can be divided into two groups: sthenic and asthenic. Stenic feelings are positive emotional states associated with the occurrence excitement, activity, vigor. They are a manifestation of preparation for large energy expenditures. Asthenic feelings are associated with experiencing sadness, decreased activity and decreased energy. They are evidence of a refusal to struggle with difficulties in conditions of increased emotional stress.

Now let's take a closer look at what basic emotions a person has. The famous American psychologist Carroll Izard included the main human emotions in a list of 10 main emotions. They unite in groups and create emotional states and can become the basis of a psychological personality type.

1. Interest is a positive emotion that motivates learning and promotes creative activity, has a positive effect on attention and interest in the object of interest.
2. Joy is the most desirable emotion, which is more a product of actions and certain conditions than the result of the desire to experience it. The state of joy is associated with confidence and self-worth.
3. Surprise - occurs under the influence of unexpected events, promotes release from previous emotions and directs all attention to the object of surprise.
4. Suffering is an emotion that causes a state of “decline of internal strength,” a feeling of loneliness and self-pity.
5. 
   Anger is associated with the mobilization of energy, a feeling of strength, courage and self-confidence.
6. Disgust – causes a desire to get rid of an object, due to the physical or psychological deterioration of this object.
7. Contempt – serves as a way of preparing for a meeting with a dangerous enemy, and is associated with a sense of one’s own superiority. This is a rather “cold” emotion, which, together with anger and disgust, are often combined in a person’s experiences and create the so-called “hostile triad”.
8. Fear - arises under the influence of information about a real or fictitious threat, and can be associated with uncertainty and bad premonitions.
9. Shame – causes a desire to hide, disappear, may be associated with personal feeling unsuitability.
10. Guilt is associated with shame, but shame can arise due to some mistakes, and guilt arises in case of violations of a moral, ethical or religious nature in situations where a person feels personally responsible for the events that occur.

Feeling is the highest manifestation of emotions

Feelings are a selective and persistent emotional attitude of a person. Feelings reflect the basic higher social and spiritual needs of a person. You already know what types of emotions a person has, and now let’s look at the main types of feelings.

Emotional Intelligence and Empathy

Emotional intelligence is a characteristic of the degree of development of a person’s emotional sphere. It includes such personality abilities as recognizing emotional states, accurately assessing emotions, and the tendency to report different states other people, attention to them, high sensitivity to the needs and feelings of other people.

It ensures the use of knowledge that is based on emotions. This is a special ability to encode and reveal emotional phenomena. A person with highly developed emotional intelligence is able to listen to his own feelings, control emotional impulses, and be optimistic.

An important trait of a person with developed emotional intelligence is the ability to empathize.

Empathy is feeling, penetration into the inner world of a person, the basis of which is the intellectual and emotional component. An empathic person is able to perceive the experiences of another person from his position, identifying himself with this person, without losing the clarity of understanding of his own personality. Empathy is an extremely valuable quality in people, professional activity which is associated with close interaction with other people.

Video about human emotions.

Each of us has emotions, it is a natural part of our Self that makes us who we are. Inherited by us from our distant, distant ancestors, emotions help us understand the world around us and ourselves, and even fill our lives with meaning. It is difficult to overestimate the role they play in our lives; emotions are really important for each of us, although sometimes they are the ones that cause us a lot of problems. In order to begin to benefit from our emotions, we must, at a minimum, gain an understanding of what emotions are and what emotions we can experience. In this article I will try to give the most full list human emotions. Knowing this list will help you understand yourself and develop your emotional intelligence.

There is a huge list of human emotions that we are capable of experiencing. However, we simply do not notice most of them because we often find it difficult to distinguish basic emotions such as joy, fear and anger from the many other emotions associated with them.

Researchers of human nature identify three categories of emotions:

Primary emotions are the basic human emotions that arise in response to external stimuli. Thus, we may experience fear when our well-being and life are threatened, or sadness when we learn about the death of other people or animals. Primary emotions are instinctive in nature, so we are least able to control them.

Secondary emotions are strongly expressed emotional states, intense and long-lasting, appearing after primary emotions. For example, when we are faced with a threat and begin to feel fear, it turns into anger, which mobilizes our strength to fight this threat.

Tertiary Emotions - The third category of emotions proposed by Robert Platchik is often overlooked by researchers and serves as a complement to primary and secondary emotions. This series of emotions is represented by the greatest variety of emotional states characteristic of a person; usually, these emotions are difficult to distinguish from secondary emotions for a person with undeveloped emotional awareness.

Among the characteristics, the main one is the valence or tone of an emotion - that is, its belonging to a negative or positive series. Thus, emotions are positive (positive) and negative (negative). It should be noted that there are much more negative emotions than positive ones, which is probably due to the need to survive in such complex world, like ours. In addition to valence, there are such characteristics as sthenicity, or the division of emotions into motivating and paralyzing, intensity, or the strength of the emotion, and content, or the difference between emotions from each other by the situation in which they arose.

List of human emotions

To begin with, I will give a list of emotions, ordering them by such characteristics as intensity and tone. The intensity of emotions in this list increases from top to bottom for positive and negative emotions separately.

It should be noted that I do not claim the complete truth of the presentation, since, as a psychological phenomenon, emotions have not yet been studied well and different authors cite different ways their classifications. In addition, since each of us is unique, we experience some of the emotions, especially the third-tier emotions, differently, and some of them are not considered emotions at all. Next, I offer you Robert Platechik’s table of emotions for you to study.

Table of emotions according to Robert Platechik:

Primary Emotions	Secondary emotions	Tertiary emotions

Good luck to you!

What are the feelings? | what are.rf

Feelings and emotions have a close connection with inner world people. Every person is very often timid and denies own feelings, confusing them with emotions or one’s own state. To confuse any person, simply ask him how he feels now. This question can baffle every member of society. Many psychotherapists confirm the difficulty this issue, because it is very difficult to talk about a momentary sensation that changes instantly. People differ from machines in that they experience a wide variety of emotional sensations every second. Just as it is difficult to understand feelings and emotions, their reason remains a mystery to many.

Feelings have a stable emotional coloring of the relationship to a situation, object or subject. Feeling and thoughts are completely connected with each other.

Not only are our feelings and emotions not understood in themselves, but their causes remain a mystery to many.

Means of cognition of sensations

A person receives all information about the world through the senses. These include: eyes, skin, nose, tongue, ears. With the help of these organs, people have an idea of ​​the world around them, see them, hear them, can feel them, and distinguish taste. There are other organs, but they are not the main ones.

Classification of feelings

There is no clear classification of feelings. But there are certain sets of feelings programmed by the film industry, by the interaction of society with an individual. Thus, an established set of all the feelings that everyone should feel was developed. Without experiencing what society feels, you can very quickly fall into the category of “strange” people.

It is enough to correctly determine what feelings a person has - it will absolutely not work. Some sensations haunt a person since the maternity hospital, while others he learns in the process of life, from his family, friends, and acquaintances. The baby experiences innate feelings from birth. Many scientists argue that innate emotions include manifestations in a child immediately after birth, before social factor and the role of parents will play a role. Psychologists have not yet come to a single list of these feelings. But still, the majority claims that these include: pleasure, joy, excitability, interest, surprise, fear, anger, irritability, fear, disgust. Other emotions come with age.

Higher feelings can also be called moral; they indicate how a person relates to the society in which he is, to the people around him, to himself. However, they are subjective, because the individual learns to understand the interpretation of good and bad actions in his own society, in which the norm of behavior may be completely opposite to other societies.

Higher or moral feelings express a person’s attitude towards society, the people around him and himself. Higher feelings are always subjective, because we learn what is right and what is wrong from our society, and the norms of behavior can be completely opposite in different societies.

Basic feelings, human emotions, can be divided into 3 groups: positive, negative, neutral.

The positive ones include:

• joyful emotions
• pleasure
• enthusiasm
• confidence
• satisfaction
• tenderness
• joy
• pride
• admiration
• trust
• hardness
• rapture
• favor
• attachment
• respect
• appreciation
• moved
• complacency
• weasel
• malignancy

Every person has experienced one or another feeling at least once in their life. Positive sensations have a beneficial effect on the human body and reinforce the desired form of behavior in memory. Negative ones, despite the fact that they are ignored and people try to forget them quickly, do not pass without a trace. It’s not for nothing that all doctors constantly say that you need to think only about the good, rejecting bad thoughts. If you cannot avoid negative emotions, then it is better to develop the habit of reacting neutrally. Let it be better to be indifferent if you can’t think positively. As a result, if a person constantly analyzes his behavior and attitude towards what is happening, then things can be either better or worse.

What are the feelings and emotions for a loved one, boyfriend or girlfriend?

Of course, feelings and emotions for a loved one, boyfriend or girlfriend are different. It can be a simple passion, when there is some sympathy and interest in each other, but nothing more. There is also attachment when people already long time together, but don't love each other, but can't get rid of each other. For example, they may be restrained by the opinions of others, children, fear, habit, pity for each other.

But the most strong feeling– this is, of course, love, which is given to few. Today, more than 90% of couples do not have love, or for example the guy has love for the girl, but she does not, and loves another guy. Not mutual love or complete, its absence is inherent modern people and youth. That is why today there are few successful marriages that get divorced within 2-3 years, but the children are left without parents. Find out how many sense organs there are.

What are the feelings?

Our emotions and feelings are reactions to past or current events. They are a product of thinking, feeling and accumulated experience. Let us consider in more detail what types of feelings there are.

What are the sense organs?

1. Vision. It is one of the most important sense organs. With its help, a person receives more than 95% of information. It allows you not only to identify an object, but also to understand its location in space, monitor its movement, determine colors and brightness.
2. Hearing. Allows you to perceive information even at a great distance. Without it, people lose the ability to pronounce articulate speech, and animals cannot escape from predators or detect prey.
3. Equilibrium. The vestibular apparatus allows you to determine the position of the body and navigate in space. Participates in the implementation of conscious movements.
4. Taste. Our tongue has taste buds that respond to salty, sweet, sour, bitter, etc. Temperature, pain, olfactory and tactile receptors help recognize taste.
5. Touch. Feeling objects provides information about the size, surface, shape, density and other properties of the object. A person can learn to recognize the vibrational feeling that he has great value for deaf people.
6. Smell. There are olfactory cells in the nose, each of which detects a substance of a certain composition and sends an impulse to the brain. It is worth remembering that volatile and soluble substances may cause irritation of olfactory cells.

What are the feelings and emotions?

Now you know what feelings are like. We have given a list of the most important emotions of Izard Carroll, a famous American psychologist.

Vladlen Pisarev, private psychologist, online consultations, Moscow: Emotions and feelings: list

In consultations, I often hear from my clients that they cannot name what is happening to them now, what feelings they are experiencing now, because they are not psychologists and do not understand this. Such words cause me a lot of surprise, since everything related to the experience of feelings and emotions is not something special and does not require special training. To realize and express your feelings and emotions you don’t have to be professional psychologist or a psychotherapist. Feelings and emotions appear in us from birth, and then form and develop throughout our lives. Therefore, everything that concerns our feelings and emotions is available to every person. This is what every person lives with.

The emotional part of human life, unfortunately, has not been studied enough. There is no consensus or approach regarding emotions. At the same time, still in some matters common language found. Most experts identify such a concept as basic or primary emotions. These are the emotions that represent the material from which our other feelings and emotions are built. Their various combinations lead to the formation of new emotional experiences.

Professionals who study emotions have different approaches to what emotions can be classified as primary. Some believe that only innate emotions are primary. Others, along with them, also include those emotions that arise in the baby as primary. The position of the latter is closer to me. I believe that basic emotions are based on innate emotional reactions, and on emotions that arise after birth within a few months. I include pleasure (joy), interest (excitement), dissatisfaction (anger), surprise, fear (fear), disgust. Primary emotions are those emotions that arise in all people. Normally, all people experience them; this ability can only be lost due to brain injuries or in the presence of certain mental illness. You can see how our emotions are formed in the brain here. Their accommodation is available to everyone. The rest are formed in the process of life and growing up, so the emotional world of each person is unique. If you observe children, you will immediately notice that they are more free to express their feelings and emotions, unlike adults. This happens due to the existing ban on the expression of feelings and emotions in adults (environmental influence). This is caused by the high prevalence of alexithymia. If adults helped the development of the emotional sphere in children, and did not hinder them, then each person would be able to freely express their feelings and emotions, live them, name them, and share them with other people. People would more often like to convey to others their emotional experiences rather than logical reasoning. The richer a person’s emotional world, the more he can get from life. This is an opportunity to live your life more fully, brighter, more interesting. It's like the difference in the sound of a melody when playing a guitar in a room, or when a whole orchestra performs in a concert hall.

The world of human emotional experiences is very rich. You can compile a list of emotional experiences in different ways, guided by different considerations. Whatever approaches you use in creating this list, you can definitely count more than fifty different emotional states. There are about a hundred of them on my list. So much has accumulated, despite the fact that I do not include in it more complex concepts and states, such as love, excitement, honor, etc., because, along with emotions, they include a lot of other things. These states and concepts are also formed in each person in their own way. Moreover, their set is very unique. Some people have no honor and others have no dignity. Someone, on the contrary, is very proud. It's not about good and bad. It's about genes and environment, who grew up in what. Depending on the environment, the content of these states and concepts is different, in contrast to emotions, the language of which is understandable to completely different people regardless of race, nation or place of residence.
