Self-care isn't just about finding ways to unwind. It's about taking care of your well-being at every level – mind, body, emotions, spirit, and relationships.

Whether You’re:

Burned out, exhausted, or overwhelmed from juggling too much for too long. Tired and making it through the day, but hoping it could get better. Or engaged in good self-care and wanting to deepen your practice.

This course will help you create small, sustainable changes so you can live a more well-rested, self-loving life.

Focusing Netzwerk Sommer Woche Achberg
Die Focusing Wochen auf dem Achberg sind seit über drei Jahrzehnten ein alljährlicher Treffpunkt für Focusing-Interessierte aus Deutschland, der Schweiz und Österreich. Ein Schwerpunkt ist das Angebot von Focusing-Grundkursen, Themenkursen und dem Trainerkurs. Ein anderer Schwerpunkt wird gebildet durch experimentelle Gruppen zur Weiterentwicklung des Focusing-Ansatzes und/oder Schreibprojekte. Neben den fortbildungsorientierten Teilnehmer:innen gibt es auch die Möglichkeit für Focusing-Interessierte, ihre eigenen Projektvorhaben mitzubringen und den Austausch mit Interessierten zu suchen.
Herzlich willkommen sind auch diejenigen, die nur ausspannen, am wunderschönen Pool liegen oder die Infrastruktur des Hauses genießen (man kann auch zelten und campen!) und von der speziellen

Do you: 

- Feel stuck in a difficult life situation?
- Suffer considerably but find you can't connect with the aching place inside?
- Or feel your life is ok but could be richer and more intimate in ways you can't yet quite articulate?

And do you want to find your own way forward, one that feels good and that comes from you?

Inner relationship focusing teaches us how to attend to our inner experience in a way that feels deeply satisfying. This attending to ourselves brings change both inside and outside, as stuck places within begin to feel safe enough to take their next steps.

Are there things you need to do, or want to do, but you just don’t do them?

Whether you’re struggling to exercise, change your eating habits, can’t seem to make time for self-care, long to pursue a dream but can’t get any traction, or have another sort of stuck action, we’d love to show you how to work with what’s blocking you so you can move forward.

You’ll also discover how to break free from motivation styles based on being hard on yourself so you can move forward with kindness and self-compassion!

“The work of the mature person is to carry grief in one hand and gratitude in the other and be stretched by them. How much sorrow can I hold? That’s how much gratitude I can give.” ~Francis Weller

This presentation is an opportunity to explore the relationship between the sorrow life brings and the joy experienced when burdens are set down, making room for a fluid heart that embraces the joyful sorrow of life in connection with others.

Jeffrey will share reflections from a carrier as a trauma therapist. He will offer writing prompts to explore your relationship with grief, sorrow, gratitude, and joy and how listening to their calling helps us grow and heal. Time will be given for people to share what they wrote so we can experience a shift from the personal
