An online, interactive workshop facilitated by Dana Ganihar and Baruch Brenner.

Registration closes Sunday, October 3 at 9:00am Eastern (NY) time.

NOTE: This experiential workshop is a follow-up to the August 15 Focusing Highlight with Dana and Baruch. Registrants will benefit from having attended or viewed the Highlight recording prior to the workshop. If you did not previously register for the Highlight - you may register for the Post-Highlight recording of the webinar by emailing [email protected] 

The act of pray-ing expands the meaning of being human, of being fully human. 

For Dana and Baruch, prayer is a unique opportunity to unfold the depths of our lives; to listen - as in Focusing - to the ‘much more still’; and to be open to how life invites us to co-create as part of a larger system. Prayer is not an action that takes place outside of existence - it is the action that creates existence.

There are many varieties of traditional prayer. In this workshop we will explore and develop a new kind of prayer consciousness:  a lucid prayer movement that transforms our life experience - free of theological underpinnings. 

This workshop is intended for those already familiar with Focusing though all are welcome to attend.

Attending the workshop live is encouraged as there will be exercises in breakout rooms. All registrants will receive a link to the recording afterwards (breakout rooms are not recorded).

Format

We use Zoom videoconferencing for our online classes. The class will be held in meeting format so that all participants can see the presenter and each other. You will need to have a computer/mobile device. Calling in by phone is also possible but not preferred as participation in breakout rooms will be limited.

About Your Facilitators

Dana Ganihar (Focusing coordinator who teaches Focusing and TAE in several universities and colleges in Israel) and Baruch Brener (Focusing trainer, theater director, singer, and a Rabbi.) are the creators of Shakio (the Aramaic word for 'the flow of life'). Shakio creates a new syntax from three languages that seek the "more": the Jewish mysticism, the philosophy of Eugene Gendlin, and art - movement, voice and imagination. About shakio: https://www.shakio.org/shakio-new/  Our foundational prayer course has several free lessons: https://shakio.thinkific.com/courses/AoP1-Foundation-Recorded
