Ecoute Focusing Alexandre Jacquelin Sonia Zuccato
On ne se forme pas à Être, on y revient par soi-même. Ce parcours est un processus progressif, psychocorporel, dans la transformation organique et la croissance mutuelle. Le processus de la présence ne s’active pas par les biais habituels du mental, du savoir et du vouloir. Il est permis par la qualité de notre relation à notre organisme dans son ensemble et par le grandissement de la conscience de soi, qui se découvre, s’installe et grandie singulièrement au fur et à mesure. Ainsi les parcours proposent des rendez-vous pratiques hebdomadaires toute l’année. Ceci permet d’accompagner le processus progressif, d’instaurer une routine vertueuse dans votre agenda, d’entretenir et d’approfondir votre pratique.

Annette Dubreuil timeline
Understanding who we are in an embodied way is a powerful way to grow our emotional regulation and emotional intelligence. When we know what it feels like in our bodies when we get scared, or mad, or are happy—or when more complicated patterns or parts emerge—then we can more quickly notice these shifts in our autonomic nervous system. This clarity helps us know when we need to self-soothe or reach out to others for co-regulation.

The class spends the first three weeks in the grounded parts, building a “safe nest” to do the deeper Focusing on our wounded and protector parts in weeks four to seven. As we map our parts, we also map out our timeline. At first with the key memories, and then with the parts that are connected to the memories. We finish the class by completing

DNA of change Serge Prengel
This course trains you to deepen and integrate your conceptual and experiential understanding of the process of change at several levels. One level is to integrate what happens clinically with clients and what it brings up for you personally. Our exploration straddles personal process and supervision, based on the idea that what we encounter with our clients is a rich source of personal and professional growth. Another level is integrating this deeply personal process with conceptual learning about Focusing as the DNA of Change.

Learning Community for Mastery in Guiding Change, Year 1 Sandy Jahmi Burg, 2019
This series is designed to encourage us to live Gendlin's concept of "crossing" in a supportive community setting. This community is for those who often find themselves in situations of facilitating change for others, individuals and groups. It’s a great option for those who are looking for a community-based path toward certification, for those who do not need certification, and also works well if you are already certified.

This Learning Community is a year-long program meeting twenty times every other week for 1.5 hours. This course/community is a lovely supportive space to continue learning with other advanced Focusers or to pursue certification at your own pace as a Focusing Professional or Trainer with TIFI.
