Amona Buechler, Focusing Trainer Nervous System Reset
After accidents, certain neurological illnesses, or emotionally challenging incidences, the autonomic nervous system can get stuck in repetitive patterns, overreacting to specific cues. This challenges our health, well-being, sense of safety and connection, and our creative potential.

We can invite and gradually build new patterns in our autonomic nervous system and brain...

This is an introduction to a 21-week Nervous System Reset Online Course November 1, 2023, until March 20, 2024

Nada Lou TAE Proficiency Award Eligible
TAE practice in 14 steps is designed by Dr. Eugene T. Gendlin in such a way that personal project is built up by following each step in succession.

Steps can be learned in succession. They can be discovered and used also separately.

It is beneficial for you to know the whole available selection of steps. They represent parts of Dr. Gendlin’s Philosophy of the Implicit Entry.

I believe and support Gendlin’s teaching style by guiding you through this practice and learning the Steps in such way first. This will help you experience the gradual discovery of capacity to think from your felt sense. It also supports breaking the language barrier for free felt sensing language to appear.

It is our intention to open up a space with the symposium to address the threatening issues of the climate crisis, the Russian war of aggression in Ukraine and the increasing polarisation within democratic societies with Focusing and Thinking at the Edge. How can we as individuals deal with these threatening issues? How can we find our own life-forwarding direction in this threatening situation? How can we find little next steps of action in the face of these overwhelming issues?
ECC - Experiential Concept Coaching - is an experiential approach that facilitates creative processes in every day life, based on Focusing and Thinking at the Edge.

The program develops in two parts: The Miracle of Focusing as a Hermeneutic Circle and Focusing Facilitators as Educators and Leaders.

How does the magic of Focusing happen when we hold open space for all to be seen and heard? Eugene Gendlin was a Heidegger scholar, and he felt that Heidegger’s hermeneutical circle could provide insight into the ground of felt-sensing and implying-into-occurring. The circle of attention, language and bodily understanding that Larry Berger offers has many commonalities with Gendlin’s A Process Model and provides ways to apply Gendlin’s teaching. Larry encourages us to further apply Gendlin’s philosophy in everyday situations, individual and collective living, especially in political environments.
