Emotions
Emotions are complex responses that include experience, the body, assessment of the significance of a situation, and readiness to act.
Definition
Emotions combine a subjective feeling, body arousal, interpretation of a situation and a tendency to act in a certain way. They help you recognize the meaning of events, protect your needs, and communicate your condition to other people. They are not the opposite of thinking; they often contribute to decisions, attention and memory.
