Louis Scotti

Lou is the founder of Our Emotional Life and author of Our Emotional life, The neuroscience of Our Emotions. Lou has always been a teacher able to motivate others through supportive instruction. Lou believes that to live a good life, a person should learn to do something of value very well then serve others with that knowledge. As an Emotions Advisor, Educator, Speaker, Author, and founder of Our Emotional Life Lou dedicated his life to the service and well-being of others.

Lou explains that like most of us, he grew up without understanding where emotions come from or how to regulate and control them. He received the standard responses in regards to his emotions like, it will pass, don't worry about it, it will be ok, or his favorite, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Well, he learned that what doesn't kill you doesn't always make you stronger. Sometimes the pain didn't pass. Sometimes painful emotions create lasting emotional consequences. Like the rest of us, he tucked away his feelings because that's what he thought he was supposed to do. No one told Lou otherwise. Emotions weren't discussed.

Noticing how many people lacked knowledge of their emotions, how they develop, and how to control and improve them, Lou was inclined to develop Our Emotional Life to allow people to understand and improve their emotional life, providing access to a credible source of knowledge and practice methodology for the understanding and development of our emotional life, and to learn how our brain builds itself in early childhood and influences our emotional temperament and personality. Our emotions can guide us and help us make good decisions, or our emotions can rule us and make our lives miserable. Our Emotional Life was written to help us improve our emotional control through acceptance, awareness, knowledge, and practice.

Lou is a graduate of Adelphi University & NYU Post Graduate Medical School, a former NYU Post Graduate Medical School Instructor. He was appointed Chairman and lead instructor for a federally granted program at the Educational Opportunities Commission, Bronx, N.Y. Lou also developed and facilitated after-school and summer programs for youth. Using all his experience and knowledge he developed the program and wrote the book Our Emotional Life.

In his spare time, Lou is an artist, athlete, and an avid martial artist. He loves to eat fresh food and cooks daily. Lou is passionate about teaching, driven to learn and excited about other people’s success, and eager to support people committed to improving their emotional life.
