A Process Model
Book • 2017
In 'A Process Model', Eugene Gendlin explores the nature of experiencing and its role in thinking, language, and therapy.
The book challenges traditional views of logic and meaning, proposing a model where meaning arises from the interaction between experience and conceptualization.
Gendlin introduces the concept of 'felt sense,' a pre-conceptual bodily awareness that serves as a source of insight and creativity.
The process model emphasizes the importance of attending to and articulating this felt sense to facilitate personal growth and problem-solving.
This approach has had a significant impact on psychotherapy, particularly in the development of focusing-oriented therapy.
The book's complex ideas are presented in a way that encourages readers to engage with their own experiencing and develop a deeper understanding of their inner processes.
