Do you…..
• feel stressed when you have to make choices?
• struggle with making decisions?
• put things on the back burner, because it’s too difficult to decide?
• second guess your own choices?
If the answer to any of these is “Yes”, perhaps this is the course for you. There is a way to work with all of these experiences that will enable you to make more confident decisions and find the next steps towards wise action.

The climate is changing, why aren't we? Annette Dubreuil Jenn Wesanko Kevin Johnson
This 8-week course will create a space for individuals to come together, share and get support for their feelings about the ecological and climate crises, to create more space for new or continued courageous action. 

This course welcomes those who have been working on climate action for years and those who are just beginning to feel the magnitude of this existential threat. 

Climate stress is held in the body. Connecting with our bodily wisdom can help us engage with and expand beyond contracted feelings of ecological grief and anxiety and rekindle more aliveness and joy. Powered by a new sense of resiliency, we can relinquish stories of separation and find deeper connection with ourselves, nature, and community.

Ann Weiser Cornell
The quality of your interactions with other people affects your energy, your mood, and your ability to thrive. If you worry about what other people think, hide your true self, have people in your life whose habits drive you crazy, or get overwhelmed by the feelings of others and pull away... We can help!

In this course, you'll learn how to turn reactions to other people into sources of healing and self-discovery, increase your ability to feel safe with others, embrace positive experiences, and be truly OK being exactly who you are (whether you're alone or with others).

Join us and start having more satisfying experiences with everyone in your life – including yourself!

Beatrice Blake, Thinking at the Edge
Is there something that you’d like to do or write about but you lack the confidence to begin? Thinking at the Edge helps you sense into the “more” behind your ideas so that you can write and act from what you know.

Do you long to contribute to the world from the richness of the insights life has given you? With Thinking at the Edge, you delve into your own experience so that your new direction follows from of all you have lived.

Maybe you need clarity and next steps about a persistent problem or a complex issue. Thinking at the Edge training helps you find the unique gifts within the challenges you face.

The Radical Welcome: Focusing in Soul Companionship Pic of Paula Gamble-Grant
Gene Gendlin, the “father” of Focusing, said this once when addressing some clinical psychologists:

“I want to start with the most important thing I have to say.
The essence of working with another person is to be present as a living being.
And that is lucky.
Because if we had to be smart, or good, or mature, or wise,
then we’d probably be in trouble.
But what matters is not that.
What matters is to be human with another human.”

Heart and Soul centered work is also, at the core, about being a human with another human. And in the heart and art of Focusing, I’ve found nothing better that gives us permission to both let ourselves, and our clients, explore the natural beauty, wonder and messiness of all things human.

Möchtest du dein Verständnis über Gott und die Welt erweitern, deine Sicht der Dinge von vorgegebenen Kategorien befreien, neue eigene Gedanken entwickeln?

Der interaktive Online-Kurs gibt einen spielerischen ersten Einstieg in die grundlegenden Prinzipien und Bewegungen von Thinking at the Edge (TAE). Übungen mit Texten, Bildern und Musik lockern den Kurs auf und tragen zum Lernprozess für dein eigenes Thema bei.

Ruth Hirsch in Venice
An introductory workshop to explore the range of feelings related to growing older in a safe, supportive space. At the same time we'll open to the value and new opportunities inherent in this stage of life. We'll also take a look at recent literature to get a sense of various perspectives and ideas about aging, and then use Focusing to illuminate ways forward for each of us. .

The experiential workshop will help you begin to develop a conscious and compassionate relationship with aging. With increased clarity and peace of mind, you can move forward and enjoy this stage of life more fully. Loss and growth are part of aging. With Focusing we can grieve the former, enjoy the latter, and use both as fuel to move forward. This is an introduction to this deep, healing
