phenomenological reduction

Phenomenological reduction is a philosophical approach that involves stripping away preconceived notions and assumptions to focus on pure experiences. It invites individuals to observe and describe their perceptions without biases, allowing deeper insights into their thoughts and feelings. By setting aside judgments about reality, one can explore the essence of experiences and understand how they shape our understanding of the world. This method emphasizes being present with one’s thoughts and perceptions to gain clarity and deeper knowledge about human experiences.
