While we deploy the word ‘experience’ with confidence derived from familiarity, an adequate definition remains elusive as the nature of experience itself. Experience can be described and expressed, but not defined and dictated. Yet experience is the foundation and fulcrum of life, without which we would remain absent from our own existence, confined to silent darkness without a trace of consciousness. Experience shapes our character, as it simultaneously authors the narrative in which the person called ‘Me’ is situated. And that experience is mine alone. Even when you and I stand beneath the same moon, peering at the same stars, shivering from the same cool night air, your experience of every moment remains distinct from mine. For experience is formed in a liminal domain somewhere between the measurable circumstances of a material world, and the ephemeral transience of ineffable nuances that characterises our presence to it. Consequently, I cannot ever adequately define your experience, nor can you presume a definition of mine. To know the experience of another we must give conscientious attention to its language of expression. This language is woven with imagery and allusion, inference and metaphor, expressing the memories and uncertainties, contemplations and intuitions that transform every ordinary sample of seeming sameness into a poetic example of our unordinary uniqueness. Experiential Psychology seeks to explore the dynamics of human experience and understand the language of its description and expression.
