I just wanted to post this to BL because I have found it useful for myself.

A doctor used kinesiology testing over the course of 20 years to determine the energetics of people in various states of being. He ordered those states of being according to vibrational levels. So for example, shame rates in at a 20 and is the closest vibration to death (where people are suicidal, etc.)

I find this chart useful because it can show you what level to reach for in order to help yourself overcome a certain state of being. For example, anger is a higher vibration than guilt and shame, and anger is the gateway to courage. It is more useful to be angry than depressed. The descriptions for each state of being are well laid out below the chart, and the factoids that follow on the latter pages are very interesting indeed.

Force: f=ma
Power: p = Dw/Dt
w=work.(so essentially p = Dw/Dt as an example ahorsepower is 33,000lbs one foot in one minute against 9.8m/s^2 gravitational acceleration and can be seen as a special case of force)

if that table has helped you that's great. i find it hard to imagine feeling these feelings in such a discrete manner that this table might even apply...

lolz...don't think that this was what the OP wanted. :P

Shouldn't we also keep in mind that w = fd (force times distance)?
 
^Not to be too pedantic, but work is probably best understood as the dot product of a force field with a corresponding displacement vector (or more specifically as the line integral of force along a path of a particle inside the force field).
 
With respect to classical mechanical work particularally in regards to rigid bodies, Ebola's description is quite valid, and far more intuitive for pedagogy purposes.

But P.A.'s is more generalized and applicable to a wider range of systems.

Either way, all 3 of us win this thread.
