"In a person who is open to experience each stimulus is freely relayed through the nervous system, without being distorted by any process of defensiveness"

- Carl Rogers

About this Quote

This quote by Carl Rogers talks to the importance of being open to experience. When we are open to experience, we permit ourselves to be receptive to brand-new stimuli with no type of defensiveness. This suggests that we are not removing any details or misshaping it in any way. Instead, we are enabling ourselves to take in the complete series of experiences with no form of judgement or resistance. This permits us to be more aware of our environment and to be more in tune with our own sensations and feelings. By being open to experience, we can acquire a greater understanding of ourselves and the world around us. This can result in greater self-awareness and personal development. Eventually, being open to experience can assist us to end up being more connected to ourselves and the world around us.
