Now I've been using it for idk like 8 years? And STILL I think that the bioemotive framework gave me a thing I didn't have.
Conversation
My focusing sessions were all pretty formulaic: I felt something was off, I triangulated to the precise feeling using analogies, introspection, metaphors, and so on, and from there to the thing originating the feeling.

However, recently, using the Bioemotive Framework I've had much more *precise* experiences: I'm triggered, I find the relevant memory in a shocking moment, I burst into tears. Happened twice now.

It has a very specific feeling and that's the referent I got the referent of finding a previously hidden, previously locked memory.

yes! bio-emotive is aiming for a much more specific experience than focusing for sure

part of it is the precision of what is even meant by "emotion." bio-emotive talks about roughly 4 categories:
"emotions" are just happy / sad / angry / afraid,
"interpersonal feelings" are "i feel betrayed / abandoned / abused / disrespected / let down / ignored / etc.",

"core feelings" are "i feel like a bad person / alone / worthless / insignificant / inadequate / lost / loss / helpless / hopeless", there are exactly 9 of these and bio-emotive claims these are the feelings that have people sobbing, that are at the "core" of their pain

and "feeling-beliefs" are a bit tricky and i'm not sure i use the term the same way doug does but examples are like "nobody loves me / i can't protect myself / my feelings don't matter / i can't trust anybody"
IME i can get to crying from just naming strong feeling-beliefs
