Overfocus

Yet it is a knowledge that remains an outsider's knowledge, and confined to the outside of things. O'Hara has never been truly of the rich as Edith Wharton was, and he has always reported the manners of the upper classes with a glaring overfocus, a visible nervous stress, as if unable to shake off some inner lack of ease.

Emphasis upon NVC decreases overfocus on words, intellectual insights, and understanding of psychodynamics which do not sufficiently stimulate and motivate patients toward being, toward self-realization, toward that dynamically knowing self which inherently implies accepting self with and without understanding.

The overfocus tends to kick on during whole-body, hands-on activities that the individual enjoys. It keeps musicians playing and actors performing long into the night.
