July 14, 2024 – “There is so much more to see in a drop of water than can be seen by the naked eye. The heavens above have an immensity that cannot even be comprehended by the naked eye. There is so much more to emotions than can be expressed by words alone.” I have been a psychoanalytic trained psychiatrist for over 30 years. For the first 10 years of my practice, most of my patients talked to me lying on a couch. After 10 years of listening to them speak, I found out what they were talking about. They were talking about their emotions. So, in 1963, I started to develop new techniques to get them to express their emotions directly with full bodied emotional expression. After 10 years of listening to them screaming, I found out what they were screaming about. They were screaming about their loneliness, their feeling of emptiness, of feeling alone, of feeling unfulfilled, of needing something, somebody, to make them feel fulfilled. They were screaming that they did not feel good enough or lovable. They were screaming about what they called the need for “love,” what I recognized by 1968 as a need for “bonding.”
