Overview
The book is about understanding how emotions can affect our life experiences, how those experiences affect our emotions, and how we can turn negative emotions into positive ones. I wrote it because I have always been fascinated by why people do the things they do in regard to emotions. My book will publish in December 2019.

Story of My Book

Emotion Commotion: What are they and what the heck do we do with them? guides the reader through how emotions work inside our brains on a neurological level, how they affect us, and ways in which we can turn our negative emotions and experiences into positive ones. 

My name is Ruth Cowan and I am the author of Emotion Commotion: What are they and what the heck do we do with them?. I wrote this book because I think being able to understand our emotions better can help us be more successful in our lives. 

My hope is that, in reading this book, you will discover more about yourself, how your emotions have affected your life experiences, and how those experiences have affected your emotions.  In this book, I hope to instill the same sort of passion and excitement that I have for understanding people on an emotional level in you. And then ultimately, I want you to see this book as a tool to help you succeed in your goals by being able to understand and manage your emotions better. 

In this book, you'll learn about understanding emotions through the science behind them and the personal experiences of others:

* The Science of Emotions- how our emotions affect us neurologically and biophysically. 
* How to take emotional intelligence to the next level
* Understanding the science behind depression
* Success stories: Carlos J. Malave who teaches young people to embrace their emotions through his motivational speaking and book.

You will love this book if you want to learn more about others, understand yourself better, and want tips to help you become more successful in your goals.

Emotion Commotion: What are they and what the heck do we do with them? is a non-fiction book that speaks to men and women who are looking to understand their emotions better and looking for ways to overcome negative emotions and experiences. This book will not only help you but will give you tools to help those around you. 

The Book - Emotion Commotion: What are they and what the heck do we do with them?

The book is written in 3 Parts.

Part 1 contains the Introduction and chapters about understanding the science of emotions from a neurological and biochemical aspect.

Part 2 contains chapters which delve into different life experiences such as depression, domestic violence, and addiction. It details what causes these things to happen in our brains and ways to help overcome them.

Part 3 contains the remaining chapters that talk about success, finding purpose and how religion and spirituality can affect us through neurotheology.

About the Author

Ruth Cowan is a Summa Cum Laude graduate of Southern New Hampshire University with a degree in nonfiction writing. As a mother and grandmother, she uses her own life experiences and wisdom to inspire others through her writing. 

Being passionate about the wellbeing of others, Ruth wrote this book in hopes of inspiring others to take a look at themselves on an emotional level with the hopes of helping them to achieve their dreams. 
 
Family is everything to me. My favorite kind of day would be a play-date with my preschool-aged granddaughters, hanging out with my seven-year-old grandson, or cuddling my four-week-old granddaughter. Aside from that, I love people. I love learning about others through their personal stories, and have no problem talking for hours! My true passion in life is writing and my hope is to be able to use my writing to help others.

Risks & Challenges

The biggest challenge with publishing a book is delivering the finished book to the backer, specifically my mailing of the book to you. I have eliminated this risk by building into the campaign the mailing and shipping costs of your signed copies to you within each pre-order tier.

The risk of delivering the pre-sale copies of my book is contingent on the publisher we use. I will be working closely with New Degree Press to make sure we get the earliest possible ship date of the signed book copy to you. We will keep all pre-sale backers up-to-date as my book hits each key milestone and publishes. You will know when the copies of my book you pre-ordered are expected to ship.

Other Ways You Can Help

Some people just can't contribute, but that doesn't mean they can't help:

* Please Share my Pre-sale Campaign on Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn with your friends, family, and network. Please use #emotioncommotion and tag me as well as my publisher, New Degree Press so we can help amplify your efforts.
* You can easily share my Pre-Sale Campaign Page via Indiegogo at the top of the page
* Please share my book to 5 friends, family members, or co-workers who you think would enjoy it. Please do this as a text message or Direct Message on social media.

Thank you so much for all of your love and support!

Thanks again,
Ruth
