We remember Plato and traditional doctrines is a quest as old as man than to know oneself, to communicate with his emotions, and his unconscious. The important thing is that it remains in its place and does not come to reverse the situation.
For some, it comes to mastering the conscious feeds the unconscious so he flourishes (the eagle flies away clutching a snake in its claws), others hear overcome and dominate the ( the foot of the Virgin crushes the serpent's head).
But, ultimately, I found this book well designed, very didactic. It is inspired by traditional physical techniques of Hatha yoga, martial arts or zazen.
Discovery rigidities and flexibilities of the body, importance of breath, refocusing techniques (to avoid burst), this book is very well done. You'd think learning meditation. Step teaches that reveal our attitudes to our expectations, how to meet, how can guide the conscious the unconscious to control and reduce what puts in turmoil, and allow a peaceful and fruitful dialogue with others.
After the first part of the book, the one concerning the student, just one concerning the educator who gets raises and attitudes conducive to a constructive dialogue with the student. It is then to go beyond appearances and "decode" that reveal the attitudes of anger or resignation to bring out the qualities, to discover and develop a personality, lead to a rise.
This dialogue between teacher and student is also the very basis of any traditional teaching. Once the works were able to transcribe such dialogues, these very personalized, even in groups of lessons, remained secret.
One can take this book as an aid in the success of a rewarding and inspiring team play, and indeed it is to this end it is designed, but it may also be the first rock on which the foot is placed before climbing a path of life over time.
I do not know where I got this Eastern maxim "Self-control is difficult for beings thing, but it's about self-control that the whole world is based," learn how to stay in control of his emotions, to know them and to ensure that they enrich us rather they ruin us, is a matter of long-term and unremitting efforts, so it is difficult to conjugate the verb to be.
The school of life football? This book wants to believe and do so anyway,
