Conscious Feelings
€30,00
— by Clinton Callahan
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 conscious feelings to re-make our lives into what really matters to us.
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,” the author asserts. “You can regain the intelligence and energy of your feelings, so long denied and dressed up to appear acceptable.”
Conscious Feelings is so much more than a book of self-help or inspiration. Ultimately, it is about our connection with and responsibility for the fate of the Earth. When we are no longer numb, we are freed from solitary confinement in our private world of thoughts and beliefs. We emerge, already connected with other human beings, connected in the world of feelings we all have in common.
Choosing numbness was probably unconscious for most of us. But Callahan is committed to showing us, step by step, in this moment, how we can change the mind and learn to consciously feel.
“This is a daring book— it asks us to recognize our numbness and become conscious about the issues that imperil our future. Deeply personal yet global, challenging, confronting, hopeful. “
—Margaret J. Wheatley, author of Leadership and the New Science
“Brilliant. A provocative study of power, healing and emotion. Callahan presents compelling insights into the relationship between personal transformation and global balance. Conscious Feelings is a road map to higher consciousness that all of us can follow.”
—Llyn Roberts, M.A., director of dreamchange.org, author of Shamanic Reiki
“Conscious Feelings is the key to deliverance of humankind from our rapidly-approaching tragic end. This book is about honesty, sustainable community, forgiveness, creativity, co-intelligence and service – all the themes of liberation from the nightmare of civilization as we know it. Plus it is a very practical human body user’s guide. Clinton Callahan is radical, and he and those he works with are genius! This is a wonderful book!”
—Brad Blanton, Ph.D., author of Radical Honesty
"Consider this book an 'Owner's Manual' for bringing the most powerful tool of human navigation into clarity and skillfulness. May the spirit world take note of this guidebook, calling us to meet our potential by developing the gifts of feeling that accompanied us into this world."
—Malidoma Patrice Somé, author of Of Water and the Spirit
About the Author
Clinton Callahan is as surprised as anyone to learn that the 'Possibility Management' he originated in Germany in 1998 provides human-thoughtware upgrades for unleashing individuals, partnerships, and organizations to create and inhabit 'Archiarchy' - the regenerative, initiation-centered, radically responsible, local-authority culture that naturally emerges after Matriarchy and Patriarchy have run their course. All Possibility Management distinctions, thoughtmaps, and processes are "copyleft" - open-code thoughtware which cannot be copyrighted. They emerge from endlessly-generous nonmaterial resources that civilization knows nothing about. You can personally tap into these same resources.
