New to Focusing? Join me for this demo where I will guide you on an exploration of implicit knowing, accessing inner wisdom through a ‘felt sense'.
Focusing is a natural ability to tap into a deep personal understanding about any given situation and determine next steps that would feel right. It is direct access in the present moment to how a whole situation “feels” in our body and life.
In Focusing terms, a 'felt sense' is the doorway to self-understanding. Let me show you how to find it!

We will begin with a centering exercise to ground ourselves and connect with the larger community. Next we will do a Focusing exercise to access a “source of strength”—letting a felt sense emerge from it. Through a user-friendly approach, we will find a way to express our felt sense into a creative expression—which might come as a color, shape, image, word, phrase, gesture or sound. We will also identify a small step to carry this inner strength into our daily life.

The connection between focusing and sexual therapy is a deep personal and professional exploration journey. S.H.I.F.T is a new connection born out of necessity: the sexual world's need for a delicate and nonjudgmental space, along with the need to sexuality in their personal life and in a focusing clinic.

El aprendizaje y la comprensión del modelo de Focusing precisan del conocimiento básico de las teorías filosóficas de Eugene Gendlin, su creador.
En este curso se ofrece la posibilidad de acceder a lo más importante de las bases de la filosofía experiencial y de la trayectoria del trabajo de Eugene Gendlin desde sus inicios, la colaboración con Carl Rogers y sus aportaciones a la Psicoterapia Experiencial.
Este curso hace posible por tanto comprender el origen del modelo de Focusing, las bases que lo sustentan y enriquecer el aprendizaje con la claridad y el conocimiento que se precisa para su aplicación práctica.

This programme begins has three main phases, which build on and interrelate;
• A solid grounding in the steps of Focusing; using the felt sense to listening to oneself and the parts of self. apply these skills of listening to self to resonant guiding of a partner in dyads
• Focusing as a relational rather than individual practice, introducing polyvagal theory and ecotherapy / existential ‘life’ energy, self as nervous system and self as universe.
• Relating with both living systems through the process model (which point to right brain, connected to self, relating to the earth, other than humans and ancestors) and how to bring a Focusing awareness to where the unit model has been over extended to life-oriented processes (left brain, disconnected, traumatised

(Sydney, Australia: Monday, March 1, 2021 from 8:00am to 10:00am)
In this class we will be exploring one fresh form of Focusing practice in particular called 'Feeling the contraction as lovingness' and ways it contributes to what Gendlin called 'first person science'.
The webinar will include an overview of methods for extending the Focusing practice tradition, including letting Focusing sessions be templates for repeatable practices, crossing practices and practice traditions with each other, and working experimentally, inspired by theories (e.g. Gendlin's 'A Process Model').
This class is intended for any Focusing practitioner who would like to experiment with variations to Focusing practice, and anyone who

Life in lockdown during these dark, cold and sun-starved winter months (at least here in the northern hemisphere) is a perfect time to pause and let in the “sunlight of Being”. To sense the vitality of Presence within and without recharges our body and mind and resources us in ways nothing else can.

En este curso experiencial exploraremos en profundidad el mundo de las emociones, para comprender mejor su complejidad y aprender a relacionarnos con todas ellas de forma más sana.
El objetivo es encontrar una forma distinta de relacionarnos con las emociones que nos permita vivir de forma más coherente y autentica. Se trata de comprender, entender y acoger. De conocer y escuchar para poder cambiar.
