Label emotions with maximum granularity rather than broad

Why This Is a Principle

Directly derives from Verbal labeling of internal states activates prefrontal (affect labeling activates prefrontal cortex and reduces limbic reactivity) and The brain constructs emotions by predicting what bodily (the brain constructs emotions using conceptual knowledge). High granularity produces more precise emotional constructions and better regulation. This is clearly a principle—it prescribes how to implement affect labeling based on what the research shows.
