The second edition of the popular and award-winning book,  Learning to Feel  is now on Kindle Countdown discount, from May 12 - May 19. Book description:  Understanding the complexities of human behavior and emotional response is no real help when it comes to experiencing feelings. In fact, having studied psychology and emotions as a career got in the way. In order to reconnect to his feelings-or what might be called the experience of the emotional experience-the author had to peel back layer upon layer to unlock the many places where his emotive process had been stuck.

Each chapter concludes with provocative questions for the reader's own self-exploration.
