The last time I would have been at this spot, it would have been to catch a plane on Concourse E. But Concourse E, along with the rest of Stapleton Airport met the wrecking ball years ago. In its place is a massive shopping area where I now sit processing the morning's teaching over some Chinese food.
I am back in my old home town for the NARTH conference. I just told someone that the morning session of the first day was worth the trip. The presenters were therapists from a leading clinic. I drank in the first several talks and had several "a-ha" moments along the way. Several of the points made resonated deeply with the conclusions I had come to but not crystalized into words.
What a great contribution these therapists are making. The men and women who receive their counsel are being given a great gift.
One of the concepts that I am chewing on is the therapist's attempt to identify feelings in the body. One speaker shed some light on it by explaining that men stuck in "shame" (Nicolosi's "gray zone") aren't feeling, so focusing on the body, where emotions have their physical expression helps them to identify what is going on in their soul.
