Here is the most complete list of adjectives that positively characterize a person. The list does not include obscene words and words that are professional terms used by a narrow circle of people for professional purposes (not in colloquial speech).
The list does not include words such as: “handsome”, “blue-eyed”, “stately”, “slender” and the like. They describe appearance, but (although they are adjectives used to describe a person) have no relation to character and are unable to shed light on personality traits.
Note: the list contains words that can be both an adjective and a participle (depending on the context in which the word is used at each individual point in time).
Also, remember: that some words are neutral in color and characterize a person from the good side only depending on the context in which it is used. But in the same way, it can be used not as a description of positive personality traits, but simply as a statement of fact (without a specific coloring).

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 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 recognize 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, 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...
Tags: Meditation exercises and techniques, Emotion management, Psychotechniques and exercisesHello 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 currently 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 a meditation exercise to help them better understand their 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 like 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 what positive meaning emotions can carry that, at first glance, are absolutely meaningless and even harmful. Read about this in the next
