ABSTRACT

This chapter first discusses the characteristics of Sensory Beings and Linguistic Beings, and how both parties can benefit from exchanging insight. Second, it looks at the benefits of sensory-being for Sensory Beings and for Linguistic Beings. Then, it looks at how people might prepare to introduce sensory-being and the challenges of finding time. Linguistic Beings are those who have acquired language, they may read or speak or write. Sensory Beings experience the world in a primarily sensory way. Being a Sensory Being affects how you understand the world; experiences can exist in isolation without association to objects or meaning. Sensory Beings have an exceptional ability to occupy the present moment. Sensory Beings tend to be cyclical: responding to hormones triggered by light and darkness, night and day, and the natural cycles of the body; processing food or medication as it enters and leaves the body.
