EQ has hit the mainstream as far as I'm concerned when I see the following magazine that launched in the UK this month. It's called Psychologies and here's their "About Us" blurb:
Welcome to Psychologies, the first women´s magazine that is about what we are really like, not just what we look like. If you are interested in the ways we think, behave, communicate and connect, then this is for you. Whether you want to develop your own potential, or become a better parent, partner or friend, we will bring you the ideas, insights and inspiration to help you do it. We all have more choices and more demands on our time than ever before. In a fast-changing world, the greatest skill we can have is to understand ourselves, and the people around us. With support from experts, who are leaders in the fields of behaviour, personality, emotions and relationships, we will present practical strategies and mind shifting insights to help you develop that understanding, and to live a richer life. I hope that you will find Psychologies.co.uk relevant to your life, thought-provoking and above all, useful.
Oprah, move over. Explore the magazine at their website.
And, also in the UK, there's a magazine called Easy Living that has -- in addition to the standard Fashion, Beauty, and Health sections -- a column on Emotional Intelligence.
It reads like an etiquette column, but with a focus on relationships, tough decisions, and communicating issues.
(Note to self: Explore the connection here to this and to my Miss Conduct/Missy Q opportunity. Hmmmm.)
