I have to agree with loverofcats1948, I'm not really getting this either.

I have listend very carefully to Paul's explanations and the best I can infer is that the feeling exercise is an attempt to encourage you to meditate and think about nothing.

I find it best to scan my body and simply observe feelings without thinking about yesterday, or tomorrow. From what Paul says, this seems to be the aim of the exercise. I've found that if you really get absorbed in this then you will find that your mind becomes calm and stops chattering. I believe this is the state that you want to be in for manifesting! ;-)
