What does it mean to GUIDE someone else in ways that bring life forward movement? This one-year course is for those wanting to dive deep into the intricacies of one-to-one relationships. This community is for those who often find themselves in situations of facilitating change for others. It’s a great option for those who do not need certification, and also works well if you are already certified or possibly alongside another certification program.
This learning community begins as a year-long program meeting fifteen times for 1.5 hours and continues with regular one-hour meetings as long as you wish to join us. This course does NOT provide certification as a Focusing Guide.
Fall 2021 will meet on Thursdays, 7:30-9pm ET, New York time, beginning Sept 2.

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. Estos Cafecitos son sin cargo para los miembros del TIFI con lo cual es condición estar asociado al TIFI para participar. Si aún no eres miembro de TIFI puedes acceder a www.focusing.org/membership o escribirnos a info@

In this Oceania Roundtable, the question we will explore is "Can Focusing transform how we handle hot potatoes?" We will organize our exploration into two stages, first working in small groups to bring awareness to our own personal patterns of handling hot potatoes and then experimenting by choosing a hot potato to discuss together.

Throughout his life - Gendlin, the philosopher of ‘being human’ - continuously investigated the processes that enabled life to move forward and evolve.
We were excited to discover that in his last years Gendlin explored the intricate connections between humans and the larger system, a discovery that inspired our path of on-going crossing between Focusing and prayer.
In this webinar we will: Explore what happens when we “Clear the space” for the word “prayer”; Become inspired by relevant texts of Gendlin's philosophy when you read them with a fresh perspective; Learn and experience the new kind of model of “Prayer for Focusers” we developed.
There will also be time for questions and comments from participants. This webinar is intended for

What might our human world look like if we were to organise it with the felt sense in mind?
We can make the felt sense an organising principle for everyone in responding to the world around us in a reflective manner. We can listen to it in facing our collective challenges, including climate change and other threats to our future.
In this Highlight webinar Peter will present a neuroscience perspective on the felt sense as the expression of one half of the brain – the right hemisphere – and he will suggest some features of this organising principle.
The illustrated presentation will be followed by discussion so that participants have the opportunity to contribute their own thoughts on the subject.
All are welcome to attend. Some
