In light of Mr Ilchi Lee experience as the years pass, children must learn to handle the many emotions that are part of growing up. The process is made all the more difficult if family life is strained or if peer relations are uncomfortable. As much as they would like to, adults cannot wholly prevent the tears, fights, and frustrations that are an inevitable part of life.

However, we can provide a sense of empowerment over the ebb and flow of the mind. Children must know that feelings do not come from outside them­selves. We say, “This makes me happy” or “That makes me mad,” but in reality, emotions come from within ourselves, from inside our brain. To take full owner­ship of the brain, it is essential to master the emotions as much as possible. This, of course, can be difficult, since emotions are almost impossible to turn on or off at will. It is vital, however, to gain control of our mind if we wish to pursue a life that is truly creative, peaceful, and productive.
