Emotions emerge from the Latin term emovere. It means “moving”. Emovere is a combination of “energy” and “motion”, which is symptomatic of human emotions. Emotional awareness is a person’s ability to understand his/her feelings. Emotional awareness fosters better communication. It helps one to recognize the emotions of other people with the understanding that feeling influences the way people communicate. Understanding one’s emotions, enhances communication with other people.
