Feelings are real, but that doesn’t mean they’re always right. This week, we’re diving into the second Great Untruth: “Always trust your feelings.” Teens will learn how emotional reasoning traps them in false stories, and how to rewrite those stories using CBT tools. Through fun examples and practical techniques, they’ll learn to recognize when their brain is lying and how to lead their emotions instead of being led by them. (The Coddling of the American Mind, Chapter 2)
