What is Feelfulness
Feelfulness - Feel a Feeling by Choice - employs methods where you experience a feeling (emotion) in anticipation by using unique linguistic elements such as evocators, movers, and descriptors arranged in triplicates, to evoke an experience in which you learn to generate a state of being.
Feelfulness takes the concept of mindfulness to even greater depths by compelling you to become your chosen thought-feelings, cultivating a positive psychological state and developing new or modifying existing personality traits, all made possible by the incredible power of neuroplasticity.
Through this process, entering the Flow State becomes second nature for you.
Why? Because your 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.
So, the question is: HOW do you wish to experience the world?
How is Feelfulness different than Mindfulness?
Feelfulness takes mindfulness to greater highs by introducing more structured techniques that help you choose and re-direct your feelings on purpose. It's about being aware of your thoughts and feelings and using specific strategies to shift your emotional state to something more positive or helpful.
This approach uses exercises to improve how you observe and respond to different environments, making it easier for you to master your presence and to improve your overall well-being. It's like learning to tune an instrument—Feelfulness helps you fine-tune your responses to play the music of life the way you want to hear it.
Feelfulness introduces more structured techniques for actively shaping your emotional and mental state with the Feel a Feeling by Choice skillset, using language constructs in the form of Word Triangles and with Thought-Feeling practices learning how to Generate a State of Being for therapeutic purposes and mastery.
Feelfulness was coined in 2001 and introduced as a transformative practice by Carmen Sauciuc.
These innovative techniques position Feelfulness as a tool for accelerated personal development, emphasizing its use for elevating emotional intelligence and more importantly functioning as a therapeutic tool.

How Was Feelfulness Developed?
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 inner-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, but feelfulness takes these practices to greater heights through the brain’s ability -neuroplasticity- to groove new neural pathways, enabling you to regulate your and even develop new traits.
1. Simultaneous Time, 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) 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, in my experience, 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 (not just state of mind, but your experiences, that which you feel).
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 (or at least attempting to) that non-biased type of keen observation, so when and if you get to the negative patterns, you will already have the skill to neutralize the undesired emotional reaction (triggers) and to choose your appropriate response by generating a state.
This is the secret to Mastery! (only nobody told you)
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 and 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!
CONFIDENCE - CONCENTRATION - CONTROL
Word triangles are an excellent strategy for constructing (creating) a state of mind. The creative process of thinking is an never ending flow. Thought management is the art of getting things done by making the best use of available resources: thoughts + words.
IGNITE - FOCUS - FORESIGHT
Word triangles strategy -MindTriangles- becomes the perfect tool for directing your stream of thoughts to constructing (creating) a state of mind. With said state of mind, then you can shift into (generate) a unique state of consciousness (feeling the experience).
Quite amazing if you ask me!
What is a State of Being?
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:
"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 outcome.
Feelfulness provides the tools for exactly that.
State vs Trait
In mindfulness, a "State" refers to a temporary condition where you are aware of your thoughts and feelings and able to stay present when distractions arise.
A "Trait" is the more permanent ability to enter a mindful perspective at will, where you recognize what you are thinking and feeling, accept them without judgment, and keep your focus on being present.
In feelfulness, you gain insight into the underlying causes of your feelings and take conscious steps to modify or change how you feel by choosing to Feel a Feeling on purpose.
In mindfulness, a "State" refers to a temporary condition where you are aware of your thoughts and feelings and able to stay present when distractions arise.
Why Generate a State of Being?
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 you a true advantage for healthy influence and motivation.
It has a tremendous impact on the whole world and is a highly desirable accomplishment for yourself.
Most importantly, feelfulness transitions you from a binary mindset to a dynamic, multifaceted state of being.
For example to transition from the dual state of confident vs doubtful, you are 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 you to feel -not just think- but truly feel the inner confidence which opens up a world of possibilities that extends far beyond you current perceptions.
Further more, this enables you to acquire a balanced state of assurance as opposed to to a state of uncertainty.
What is the difference between Feelings vs Emotions?
Feelings are the perceptions of physiological changes, whereas emotions are mental images, representing internal or external states of reality.
Emotional experience is believed to be subjective, varying in intensity and quality depending on factors such as your personality, cultural norms, and situational context.
Feelfulness is a powerful tool that you can use to gain greater control over your thoughts, feelings and emotions. This leads to an overall improved state of being, allowing you to be more feelful with your positive feelings, become better equipped to manage difficult emotions, and more be confident in your ability to grow and develop through this incredible power of neuroplasticity.
Your manner of thinking, feeling, and acting is defined by your unique personality traits; these traits are a blend of genetic and environmental influences, and go through changes as you are exposed to new experiences.
Thus, through purposefully crafted experiences you can develop (or modify 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.
You achieve this through the use of distinctive language constructs comprised of evocators, movers, and descriptors arranged in triplicate structures.
Evocative words and phrases stimulate you 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 you create /modify /generate a state and through repetition (thought-feeling practices) help you create a more permanent ability to enter a feelful state at will. This is mastery!
Merging Neuroplasticity with Inner Alchemy
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, yet feelfulness takes these practices to greater heights teaching you how to regulate your emotions therefore increase your intelligence.
Feelfulness was coined in 2001 and introduced as transformative practice by Carmen Sauciuc.
