Conscious Feelings: Living Life Closer To Your Own Truth
()
About this ebook
"An owner’s manual for Sane Human Being! Pretty soon you’ll reclaim who you have always been, who you came here to be: deep and authentic feeling, conscious life, and a chance to play a part in the healing of our collective nightmare." -Malidoma Patrice Somé, PhD, author, healer, African Shaman
"For modern seekers, responding to the call for initiation into relationship, here is an open invitation. As with all true rites of passage, there is no promise of safety along the way, and, the potential for transformation is boundless." -Sally Erickson, artist, psychotherapist, community organizer, and film producer.
This book is about feelings, and the ways that we, as individuals and as a culture, have numbed ourselves against them. It is about unleashing the possibility of using your conscious feelings to re-shape your life around what really matters to you.
Conscious Feelings introduces readers to the concept of the "personal numbness bar" –– a measure set high by modern culture as a way of keeping everything "cool," under control, and consequently out of touch. This book provides the insight and the means for lowering that numbness bar. "You can feel more wisely and effectively," the author asserts. You can regain the intelligence and energy of your feelings, so long denied and dressed up to appear acceptable. "Being cool," Callahan states, "allows you to look the other way about schooling, prescription drugs, corporate wrongdoing, corruption, pollution, injustice, your life purpose, your love life, and your job," and to accept the generic malaise that characterizes so many ordinary relationships.
The central framework of the book is built with the Ten Distinctions for Consciously Feeling, including: Learning the potent difference between thoughts and feelings. Sorting out feelings (based in the present) from emotions (based in the past, on cultural or religious beliefs). Experiencing how feelings are absolutely-neutral energy and information, neither good nor bad, neither positive nor negative, yet extremely useful in your adult life.
Each chapter is enriched with THOUGHTMAPS—clear diagrams of ways you presently think and ways you could possibly think—supported by an abundance of practical experiments t
