Research and Reading
Books, articles, podcasts, blogs, and videos relevant to the Bioenergetic theory
Once we accept that knowledge is tentative, and that we are probably going to improve our knowledge in important ways when we learn more about the world, we are less likely to reject new information that conflicts with our present ideas.
