Opis

THE IDIOT GUIDE TO EMOTIONS sets out to elucidate the nature and functions of our emotions and provides clear instructions and examples how to handle emotions and keep them in a healthy balance. The author stresses the fact that emotions have a kaleidoscopic nature, that all emotions are interlocked and that balance is vital to emotions in the sense that they assume a rather negative and devastating character when getting out of balance. The author demonstrates that most passion crimes are committed because people mishandle their emotions, or have never learnt to handle them in the first place. This is so because in our culture the bioenergetic nature of emotions is veiled or outright rejected; this means emotions are not seen as what they are, that is, flowing streams of vital energy that are part of our luminous body. The audience for this guide is both the professional and lay audience, including those who are directly concerned and who have a problem with handling their emotional flow. The need for solutions to our emotional problems is not only an individual quest, but also a matter of public hygiene. It results from our our collective denial of the basic patterns of living. This collective denial resulted in our messing up the code of life, thereby bringing about large-scale perversion and violence. The social and legal policies in place for handling antisocial conduct are largely ineffective because they are based on the ignorance of bioenergetic truth and reality. The guide contains effective solutions both for the individual quest for emotional sanity and for forging new and effective social and legal policies for handling emotional flow within society at large, and with the ultimate objective to regulate our social conduct responsibly and without the need of law enforcement, coercion and monolithic state control.
