It pulsates. And that this pulsation is a biologic phenomenon. It is not a poetic metaphor.” “Reich referred to this way of thinking as functional thinking…this by the way is distinct from today’s pervasive mechanistic thinking which in the realm of technology and machines is completely rational, in the realm of the living, not at all.” Segments of Armoring Within the Body Diagram of the Layers of Emotional Structure Diagram of the Layers of Emotional Structure With Armoring Question or Comment?
