Eastern Time (New York Time)
It’s been a rough ride. Our bodies fold up to endure the hardship, and they slowly begin to stretch out as it feels safer. But we still don’t know how far we can stretch, how safe is safe enough? Let’s be together this fall and share our journey through the lens of the Felt Sense Polyvagal Model™.

Eastern (Hora Nueva York)
Esta serie brinda un espacio para conectar miembros hispanohablantes del Instituto Internacional de Focusing (TIFI). Es un espacio para aprender y expandir el conocimiento sobre Focusing y temas relacionados. El concepto de "Cafecitos" viene de la idea de estar en la casa de un amigo/a y conversar tomándose un café. Queremos que estos Cafecitos se sientan acogedores y que tú te sientas en casa durante estas entrevistas. Cada Cafecito tiene a un nuevo entrevistado quien compartirá su conocimiento sobre algún tema en especial con la comunidad hispanohablante.

This course is designed to provide practical ways on how to use language in clear and engaging ways, saying more of what you mean. It takes its inspiration and many of its practices from the insights and work of Gene Gendlin.
We will use examples from our own experience, and many from writers, poets, artists and other Focusing practitioners along the way. We will do exercises together and you are encouraged to try these out between sessions on your own projects.

Pacific Time
Not feeling good about yourself can be like living under a dark cloud that casts a gloomy shadow on whatever you say, do, think, feel… And that makes life harder than it has to be.
But it doesn’t have to be that way. You can learn how to handle emotional triggers, difficult habits, and inner critics in a way that leaves you feeling better about yourself. Let me help you get started (and share what you can do to keep going!).
