Produktbeschreibung

This is a book about feelings. As Sandy Weymouth writes, "It can be helpful to look at them, analyze them, think and talk about them, express them in some way. But if you really want to do something about them, feel them. As deeply and completely as possible." This may sound easy but we rarely do it, because we're conditioned to stop feeling anything that gives us the slightest discomfort: we relieve feelings by suppressing them. But human culture, Weymouth explains, has now come to a turning point. Over centuries, much of the technology we've developed has protected us and made our lives safer--and the safer we are, the more we can open up to the feelings we have long tried to stifle. This book persuades us to surrender up to the deepest parts of us, to feel the deepest parts of us. "Do and get what you want and need most, and experience the feelings that come up along the way. Do that and you'll do the world more good than you're doing it now. That's the argument of I Am The Emperor."

Autorenporträt

Sandy Weymouth's dream, for most of his adult life, was to promote the cathartic experience of emotions: pain, rage, fear, joy, anything that comes up. He began his studies at the Casriel Institute in New York, and developed his own techniques and guidelines over a lifetime of practice. In his late forties he bought 23 acres of land in Maryland and established The Woods Place, a center devoted to exploring how all of us can best surrender to our feelings. Sandy died in 2014, but The Anthony E. Weymouth Foundation carries on his work.
