TAE Academy The International Focusing Institute Events
The 2024 TAE Academy took place in January. YOU MAY REGISTER FOR THE RECORDINGS which remain available through April 30, 2024.

This online Academy will allow you to both take a deep dive into TAE, and also to get a broad experience of outstanding teachers from all over the world.

TAE is a practice developed by Gene Gendlin and Mary Hendricks-Gendlin. It is related to Focusing but has a different emphasis. Both are grounded in the “felt sense,” that murky sense of something you know which is not yet in words. With TAE, we intentionally and systematically build upon that not-yet-articulated place to allow for something new to be brought into the world.

The Main Classes are intended as live experiences, so please block out the time for those

Kati Singh
Join us every Wednesday in 2024 for a contemplative meditation from the mind of Jiddu Krishnamurti. We meet on Wednesdays from 1pm to 2pm EST/NY where we pause to contemplate the truth.
We move slowly through these meditations leaving space for pauses, reflections and focusing partnership interactions - any language and any level of Focusing proficiency is welcome into this space, or none at all.

These events are open and free to the public - each meditation is taken from Krishnamurti's Book of Life.

Pre-register on zoom.

Annette Dubreuil leadership
In this ten-week Focusing course, we learn to use self-regulation and co-regulation to affect the interactions in our relationships. You can explore any relationships, including those that include power (leaders and employees, teacher and students, parent(s) and children).

The goal is to use emotional regulation to create safe and connected relationships that allow for creativity and action to flow.

reves Alexandre
Les rêves fascinent depuis la nuit des temps, ils sont mystérieux, messagers, et parfois nous laissent une sensation étrange au réveil. Dans une vidéo en ligne intitulée Dream open doors to focusing (les rêves ouvrent les portes du focusing), Gendlin dit qu’une manière d’apprendre le focusing consiste de partir des rêves, car chaque rêve vous donne un ou plusieurs sentiment bizarres”.

Over 10 weeks, Doorways to the Soul 2 continues to build on the skills and concepts practiced in DW1. DW1 (or the equivalent of Focusing Levels 1&2 with another teacher) are a prerequisite to taking DW2.

In this course you’ll continue to grow in your Focusing and Companioning skills - dealing with the super power of empathy, inner critics, feelings about feelings, recognizing close and distant processes, sensing what a part is not wanting, and more!
