In this two day workshop, I will teach you the basic steps of Focusing so you can practice with a partner, and bring Focusing into your life and healing practice.

You will gain access to the rich inner wisdom that unfolds as you find Presence in your own life, and also learn how to facilitate a Focusing-Oriented approach to healing with others.

We will be exploring the pause as an embodied shift from mindless to mindful. We will be paying attention to the embodied quality of this pause, through a simple stretching exercise. We will be doing this to pay attention to our inner experience, our felt sense, as our muscles gently engage and our body realigns. We will be observing what it means to engage, moment by moment. We will explore the feeling of being at the edge of noticing as if we are an outside witness and being a dancer who is influencing the dance. This is a kind of experience for which we do not have words that readily fit. Sharing the experience in a Focusing partnership allows us to go deeper into it.

Clearing Space is a powerful stand-alone process with strong research to support it as a stress-reduction tool independent of the other steps of Focusing. This class will explore how you can use this practice in your daily life to manage its ups and down when you might not have access to a Focusing partner.

This is the second of our three part interactive online course. We will guide you, in a playful way, through the second phase of Thinking at the Edge (TAE), (steps 6 - 9): Working with instances – personal experiences that feel relevant for the topic we are thinking about. We welcome participants of part 1 and those who have experienced TAE steps 1 to 5 from another source. You need not be an expert in steps 1 - 5 to enjoy the next steps.

Weltweit müssen Menschen sich momentan distanzieren und auf ihr häusliches Umfeld zurückziehen, um eine schnelle, ungezügelte Verbreitung des Coronavirus einzudämmen.

Dies bedeutet auf zwischenmenschliche Begegnung, Austausch, Kontakt, berufliche Tätigkeit, Engagement, kulturelle Teilhabe und vieles mehr zu verzichten.

Dazu kommt die tägliche Sorge um nahestehende und besonders gefährdete Mitmenschen sowie existenzielle Sorgen um das eigene Wohlergehen und den drohenden Verlust des eigenen Arbeitsplatzes.

As all of us continue to find ways to keep ourselves, our families, and our communities safe from the coronavirus, our need for connection and emotional support is higher than ever.

This is a 30-minute webinar (with Ann Weiser Cornell) with warm, positive tips for emotional self-care in these challenging times.

Our hope is that you’ll leave the webinar with a greater sense of resilience and some relief from the stressful feelings you might be having. And that you’ll know you are not alone.
