This interview from The Well features Arthur Brooks discussing metacognition—the act of thinking about thinking. Brooks explains how this skill helps us reflect on our emotional life, allowing us to evaluate feelings before reacting. This practice fosters greater emotional health, much like encouraging children to "use their words" instead of screaming.

Metacognition is a learnable skill requiring patience. Brooks stresses that negative emotions are normal and healthy; what matters is how we engage with them. Mastering this ability can enhance personal happiness and the well-being of others. Watch Arthur Brooks’s next interview: There is a formula for happiness — but it’s highly misunderstood.
