In this conversation, Lynn Preston talks about a new venture: Learn Focusing, Pay It Forward. This project involves no money, but instead the commitment to share the teaching with others. It is an introduction to Focusing as a way of relating for community organizers, therapists of all kinds, religious leaders and everyone else. It helps people experience why Focusing, an approach to tuning in to one’s deeper implicit knowing, is used all over the world for many projects.
The program consists of four sessions, which include the essentially needed attitude of openness and curiosity; the skills of accessing what we know deeply but have not yet formed in words or thoughts; the ability to listen responsively and deeply; practice in genuine relating-conversation that brings new connection.
