چکیده

Have you ever felt happy, sad, angry, or afraid? How about jealous, ashamed, or embarrassed? Almost everybody has these different emotions from time to time, and they can have a big effect on the way people think and act. Because emotions have such a big effect on people’s lives, scientists have spent a lot of time trying to understand how they work. In this paper, we will talk about how emotions work.

Last, we will talk about how we can change our emotions if we are feeling bad and want to feel better.
