A Creative Weaving An introduction
from the Focusing and Buddhism Working group.
- Join our
online discussion group "Focusing, Contemplative Practices and
Spiritual Paths."
- Find A Focusing Partner: We have
people in our partnership pool from all over the world, many of whom are
meditators. If you wish you can request a partner who shares that background.
- Phone Coaching
Sessions: These sessions will teach you the established steps to learn
focusing and are customized to help each person individually. One or several
phone sessions will give you a beginning taste for Focusing. We have coaches
who are also long time Buddhist practitioners, if you would like to be taught Focusing
by someone who practices that crossing.
