It discusses the benefits but also the dangers of politics based on \"gut feelings\" - rather than arguing that people need to be more \"rational\" I say there is great value in listening to your body but also that it requires actual (and critical) listening which is the opposite of just acting \"from the gut\" without hesitation or reflection. In other words, it requires paying attention to what Eugene Gendlin calls \"the felt sense\".<em><br \/>\n<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.routledge.com\/The-Psychology-and-Philosophy-of-Eugene-Gendlin-Making-Sense-of-Contemporary\/Severson-Krycka\/p\/book\/9781032280042\">https:\/\/www.routledge.com\/The-Psychology-and-Philosophy-of-Eugene-Gendlin-Making-Sense-of-Contemporary\/Severson-Krycka\/p\/book\/9781032280042<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have a chapter in the forthcoming (april 2023) book The Psychology and Philosophy of Eugene Gendlin: Making Sense of Contemporary Experience.
