“We should not pretend to understand the world only by the intellect; we apprehend it just as much by feeling.” ― Carl Jung
Thoughts and feelings affect who you become and what you achieve: when you gain the power to change them, you gain the power to change your circumstances, your health, and your life’s purpose, you gain the power to choose HOW you wish to experience the world.
Feelfulness -Feel a Feeling by Choice- employs methods where a feeling (emotion) is experienced in anticipation by using unique linguistic elements such as evocators, movers, and descriptors arranged in triplicates, to evoke an experience in which an individual.
Feelfulness takes the concept of mindfulness to even greater depths by allowing individuals to become their chosen feelings, cultivating a positive psychological state and develop new or modify existing personality traits, all made possible by the incredible power of neuroplasticity. Through this process, entering the Flow State becomes second nature.
Feelfulness’ methodology is grounded in the concept of Neuroplasticity, the brain's capacity to re-wire and adapt in reaction to new experiences and stimuli; some procedures are inspired by a common element from spiritual systems such as alchemy, and shamanism: shifting of one’s state of consciousness, which always involved the intentional shifting of one’s state of being.
Traditionally this process is facilitated through a wide range of activities such as mindfulness practices, meditations, and other forms of cognitive therapy, and feelfulness takes these practices to greater heights due to the brain’s ability -neuroplasticity- to groove new neural pathways, enabling an individual to regulate their emotions, and even increase their intelligence.
In mindfulness, a “State” refers to a temporary condition in which an individual is aware of their thoughts and feelings and able to stay present when distractions arise, and “Trait” is the more permanent ability to enter a mindful perspective at will, in which an individual recognizes what they are thinking and feeling, accepts them without judgment, and keeps the focus on being present.
In feelfulness, individuals gain insight into the underlying causes of their feelings, and take conscious steps to modify or change how they feel.

While a state of being and a state of mind are related, they are not the same thing. A person's state of being can influence their state of mind, and vice versa, but they are distinct concepts.
The verb to be is an example of a state verb which relates to the state of being. In other words, if you ARE, then you are in the state of being. If something EXISTS, it is in the state of being too. "To be" is the primary state-of-being verb. So, "Jane is a mother." "Ron was sick." "Tim is dead." "Cory is intelligent." The subject is renamed by a predicate nominative (mother) or a predicate adjective (intelligent).
You CAN control your state of being. When you choose which state of being you’d like to experience, you’ll be able to determine and direct your actions.
Feelings are the perceptions of physiological changes, whereas emotions are mental images, representing internal or external states of reality. There are numerous theories of emotion, with some believing that emotions are a cognitive and physiological experience, while others suggest that emotions are produced by complex interactions between cognitive, physiological, and social processes. Emotional experience is believed to be subjective, varying in intensity and quality depending on individual factors such as personality, cultural norms, and situational context.
Feelfulness is a powerful tool that can be used to gain greater control over one's thought, emotions, and feelings. It can lead to an overall improved state of being, allowing individuals to be more feelful of their feelings, better equipped to manage difficult emotions, and more confident in their ability to grow and develop through the incredible power of neuroplasticity.
An individual's manner of thinking, feeling, and acting is defined by their unique personality traits; these traits are a blend of genetic and environmental influences, and go through changes as the person is exposed to new experiences and gains understanding of their thinking and feeling.
Thus, through purposefully crafted experiences an individual can develop or modify their existing personality traits; for example, an individual who is naturally introverted may develop more extroverted traits and an individual who is more deceitful can develop more honesty traits.
This is achieved through the use of distinctive language constructs comprised of evocators, movers, and descriptors arranged in triplicate structures. Evocative words and phrases stimulate an emotional response - strongly positive or negative reactions- beyond their literal meaning because they are vague, and everyone has a subjective experience of what the words means to them. These language constructs as word triangles help create /modify /generate a state and through repetition help create a more permanent ability of an individual to enter a feelful state at will.
Neuroplasticity – or brain plasticity – is the ability of the brain to modify its connections or re-wire itself. Without this ability, any brain, not just the human brain, would be unable to develop from infancy through to adulthood or to recover from brain injury.
Feelfulness’ methodology is grounded in the concept of Neuroplasticity, the brain's capacity to re-wire and adapt in reaction to new experiences and stimuli; some procedures are inspired by a common element from spiritual systems such as alchemy, and shamanism: shifting of one’s state of consciousness, which always involved the intentional shifting of one’s state of being.
Traditionally this process is facilitated through a wide range of activities such as mindfulness practices, meditations, and other forms of cognitive therapy, and feelfulness takes these practices to greater heights due to the brain’s ability -neuroplasticity- to groove new neural pathways, enabling an individual to regulate their emotions, and even increase their intelligence.
Feelfulness was coined in 2001 and introduced as transformative practice by Carmen Sauciuc. Training and coaching are recommended.
Most importantly, feelfulness transitions individuals from a binary mindset to a dynamic, multifaceted perspective. For example to transition from the dual state of confident vs doubtful, an individual is encouraged to utilize both facets of this dual state by adding a new perspective: doubt the old perceived limitations and consider recognizing current strengths which enables them to feel and not just think, but truly feel the inner confidence opening up the world of possibilities that extends far beyond their current perceptions. This enables individuals to acquire a balanced state of assurance as opposed to that of uncertainty.
The five sequential components of Feelfulness processes are:
1. Awareness.
This component pertains to a person's capacity to observe the factual environment, thoughts, and emotions without judgement.
2. Thought.
This component refers to an individual becoming aware and recognizing their thoughts and/or string of thoughts.
3. Attention.
The third element focuses on an individual's capability to remain attentive and aware of their thoughts and emotions, in the present moment, while disregarding or bypassing potential distractions.
4. Choice.
The fourth component refers to an individual’s capacity to choose the thoughts (the most suitable cognitive frameworks ) most optimal for the present context.
5. Action.
The last component involves implementing the choice from the fourth component, believing positive thoughts and generating the feeling /emotions associated with those thoughts, cultivating the most advantageous mindset, and generating the corresponding emotional state for the most effective outcome: a feel good state.
Crafting the ability to generate a state of being and then making it available (provide it) to those around, is an invaluable skill to possess.
Having the capability to make this “feeling” accessible to patients, clients, students, and loved ones gives and individual a true advantage for healthy influence and motivation.
It has a tremendous impact on the whole world and is a highly desirable accomplishment.
how do you mean?
Hi,
My name is Carmen Sauciuc,
I'm the founder of FeelFulness® with decades of applied neuro-language experience, drawing upon the principles of Functionalism by William James, Inner Alchemy by Carl Jung, Interspersal Tailoring by Milton Erickson, and Human Potential by Martin Seligman. My work is influenced by alchemy and shamanic practices and deeply rooted in neuroplasticity: shifting of one’s state of consciousness, which always involved the intentional shifting of one’s state of being.
When I first discovered Feelfulness’ potential for influencing healing and motivation, my life took a 90-degree turn. This is the reason I developed the techniques, authored the book and created this website because feelfulness’ potential for generating states of being is unrivaled.
Did I say unrivaled? and exceptionally efficient?
Feelfulness® techniques with Word Triangles through Thought-Feeling practices- are the exact tools you need to become a powerful influencer as a therapist, coach or leader.
I’ve coined the term "Feelfulness" in 2011 and I'll show you how
1. to unleash the power of your thought-feelings with word triangles (neuro-language)
2. to re-direct your stream of thoughts (thought management)
3. to shift your mindset (re-pattern) and
4. create a desired state of being by feeling a feeling by choice®
5. to productively register it (neuroplasticity) in your muscle memory (automatic habits)
Did I say unrivaled? and exceptionally efficient?
1. Develop the Advanced Observer
1. Feel a Feeling by Choice
Increasing Awareness we already know how to do. But Feeling a Feeling by Choice when we need to Change an emotion that does not lead to a fulfilled life, is a completely different Skill-Set.
Not only will you learn to ensure you are never "over-run" by emotions but you will learn hoe to GENERATE a FEELING that will lead to an Emotion.
3. Generate States of Being
Effortlessly Generating a State for your clients begins with mastering Generating a Feeling that Leads to a State, having a clear discernment over the similarities and differences over the emoti-flavors between various states of being (not just state of mind).
Once mastered, your generated state can be made available or transferred so-to-speak to your client or an audience (colleagues, family, or group of people).
HOW - BECOME - ACHIEVE
Thoughts and feelings affect who we become and what we achieve: when we gain the power to change them, we gain the power to change our circumstances, our health, and our life’s purpose, we gain the power to choose HOW you wish to experience the world.
PATTERN RECOGNITION - PATTERN UTILIZATION - PATTERN CREATION
Whether you’re a people helper (practitioner, coach) or managing /leading people,
learning how to Generate a State (Feel a Feeling by Choice®) is for You!
Why? Because it is not just an ADVANCED Skill but it is CONCEPTUAL meaning you can use it in a way that is good for you at whatever you do that you can do better.
PRACTITIONER - LEADER - PEOPLE HELPER
Feelfulness is one of the most advanced skills to acquire and to master and once practiced enough number of times, it has become an automatic habit for me and for everyone I taught this as a SKILL.
Effortlessly generating states for your clients begins with mastering generating states for yourself first, having a clear discernment over the similarities and differences over the flavors (gradients) between various states of being.
THERAPEUTIC - PEAK PERFORMANCE - MASTERY
Once mastered, your generated state can be made available or transferred to your client or an audience (colleagues, family, or group of people).
This is the reason why is necessary to increase your acuity, perfecting your detached observation skills, for when and if, you get to the negative patterns, you will already have the skill to neutralize the undesired emotional reaction and to choose your appropriate response by Generating a State.
This is the secret to Mastery!
Lead singers do this very well, but they do not focus on projecting their state unto the audience, instead they focus on presenting their Mastery; they allow themselves to feel the feeling of, to "swim" in their mastery while performing, and this is how they have their fans “under their spell.”
It's not a "spell," it's FEELFULNESS!
