Our workshop is an opportunity to reconsider something you aren't happy with, something you disagree with in your life. We aim at a coherent new understanding. You will be guided to develop fresh meanings and forms from your felt sense. This way you create the kind of "normality" that make you feel healthier, happier and empowered.

AEST
Our usual practice is to open with an attunement that helps us set aside our busy lives and deliberately come into this protected space, where we can be with whatever is there in our inner world that needs our warm curious attention. Then we separate into pairs or triads to Focus, and come back together at the end for a time of closing.
Focusers of all levels of experience are welcome.

That Eugene Gendlin had a special relationship with the medieval German mystic Meister Eckhart was already evident from the fact that he had his sermons and treatises on that nearby shelf next to his work-armchair, where otherwise only his own manuscripts were waiting for further processing. Meister Eckhart‘s book was literally close at hand.
In this experiential workshop, In this workshop, Donata intends to curiously explore edges and bridges between Gendlin’s process-thinking and Meister Eckharts' approaches.
Registrants should have familiarity with Focusing, but do not need experience with philosophy.

Nysgjerrig på Focusing (Felt Sensing)? Har du lyst til å bli mer kjent med den visdommen som kroppen har om situasjonene dine, og som det logiske hodet ikke har direkte tilgang til?
Dette er det første kurset i Modul 1 av Grunnutdanning i Felt Sensing og Medsensing.
Kurset gir deg et første møte med denne selv-empatiske prosessen som gir deg tilgang til det du vet, til din egen indre stemme, og til mer medfølelse og selv-medfølelse, trygghet og romslighet i møte med egne og andres følelser.

Felt understanding underpins all our saying and doing, as Gendlin demonstrates in 'Experiencing and the creation of meaning'. Focusing practice shows, though, that the thoroughness and sensitivity with which we let felt understanding shape our saying and doing varies greatly. This series of six workshops introduces you to practice experiments that you can use to explore how you listen and talk, where others' are coming from, and ways to shift conversational rhythms to create more space for everyone to dip into felt understanding as you think and talk together. 6 weeks for 2 hours, from mid February to the end of March.
