Purpose

The This Emotional Life Web site is a companion to the three-part PBS documentary series that explores ways of improving our social relationships, learning to cope with depression and anxiety, and becoming more positive, resilient individuals.

The site is designed to help people live happier, more meaningful lives by providing expert-vetted information, revealing personal narratives, and connections to related resources.

Information and resources

The information appearing in the Topics section of the site was developed in partnership with the Relationship Research Institute (RRI), a non-profit organization established by Dr. John Gottman, Emeritus Professor at the University of Washington.
