Unlocking the Hidden Potential of Our Minds: A Psychotherapist's Guide to Happiness, Connection, and Aliveness
What if there were parts of our minds that, if awakened, could make us happier, more connected, and truly alive? World-renowned psychotherapist and educator Steve Biddulph explores the concept of 'supersense' – the feelings beneath our feelings – which can guide us to a more awake and free way of living.
In Fully Human, Biddulph shares deeply personal stories from his own life and those of his clients, alongside cutting-edge insights from the frontiers of neuroscience and psychology. He introduces the Four-storey Mansion, a powerful tool for using your mind that can be taught to a five-year-old, yet also help the most damaged adult.
From a mother's life-saving trust in her 'gut feelings' to a young father's ability to grieve through song, Fully Human illuminates the wisdom of the 'wild creature' inside all of us. Biddulph shows how awakening our untapped mental potential can bring peace to the conflicts and struggles we face, enabling us to live with greater aliveness and connection.
Discover how to become more alive and connected in this transformative book from the bestselling author of Raising Boys.

Another wise offering from Steve Biddulph that manages to be both practically helpful and inspiring. He encourages us to tune into our felt selves as well as to connect with a wider sense of belonging. A lovely book.Sue Gerhardt, author Why Love Matters
A kind and encouraging book, as well as being a helpful and essential tool for navigating modern life. I highlighted various sections and read lots of bits aloud.Cathy Rentzenbrink, author of Dear Reader and The Last Act of Love
This very personal book provides great insight and depth to help us not only survive but to heal, grow and move forward with greater clarity and purpose. I loved this book and found it enormously helpful as I continue to navigate the twists and turns of my life.Rosie Batty, campaigner and founder of The Luke Batty Foundation
Fully Human gives a name and structure to something that we all experience, but mostly ignore; our supersense. As I turned each page I could physically feel a reconnection to this long lost intelligence. This book is rocket fuel to your senses.Andy Ramage, author of The 28 Day Alcohol-Free Challenge and Let's Do This!
