To Jobs, this seemed preferable to talk therapy because it involved intuitive feeling and emotional action rather than just rational analyzing.
在乔布斯看来,这一疗法比谈话疗法要好,因为这其中包含了直观的感受和情感上的活动,而不仅仅只是理性的分析。
"This was not something to think about," he later said.
“这种疗法不需要你去思考,”他后来说,
"This was something to do: to close your eyes, hold your breath, jump in, and come out the other end more insightful."
“而需要你去行闭上眼睛,屏住呼吸,全身心投入其中,这之后你就会获得更深刻的见解。”
A group of Janov's adherents ran a program called the Oregon Feeling Center in an old hotel in Eugene

Jobs confided to close friends that he was driven by the pain he was feeling about being put up for adoption and not knowing about his birth parents.
乔布斯曾经向自己的密友透露过,他参加治疗是因为饱受童年痛苦:被领养并且对亲生父母毫无所知。
"Steve had a very profound desire to know his physical parents so he could better know himself," Friedland later said.
“史蒂夫非常渴望了解自己的亲生父母,这样他就可以更好地认识自己。”弗里德兰后来说。
He had learned from Paul and Clara Jobs that his birth parents had both been graduate students at a university and that his father might be Syrian.

"This is something that is bothering me, and I need to focus on it," he said.

and in December of that year he released the song "Mother" with the Plastic Ono Band.
