We all know what it's like to have a "charge" about something. It's a feeling of excitement, fear, sexual arousal, or irritation. But what we don't currently know is how to use charge for the behaviors we want to create. Charge is a word for the basic life force running through us. This force is crucial if we are to meet the challenges of difficult situations, heal past wounds and traumas, and manage the stress of modern life. Even more, it is essential for understanding how to master your own life force and become all you can be.
