En Tres aserciones sobre el cuerpo, Gendlin dice que nuestros cuerpos son heredados de las plantas. Las plantas, sin tener cerebro ni sistema nervioso ni los cinco sentidos, crean sus cuerpos de la luz, del aire, del agua, de la tierra. Nuestras sensaciones corporales con significado vienen de esta capacidad de las plantas de sentir lo que necesitan y recibirlo del entorno.

In this 8-week group, you will use Focusing to transform a significant issue in your life, in part by deepening your access to Self through the 8Cs of Self-Leadership. The 8Cs are calmness, connectedness, curiosity, clarity, compassion, confidence, courage and creativity.
By crossing these qualities with our issue, we move through it by pausing, understanding the issue, transforming it, and then preparing for action, and finally taking action.
Your issue can be working towards a personal or professional goal. However, the course is designed in such a way that you can also bring a different topic each week to your Focusing, and concentrate on building your 8Cs which help you live as your Self more often.

In this eight-week Focusing course, we learn the practice, including being a listener. We slowly learn each of the 6 steps of Focusing, adding a new one every week or two. We also gradually learn new listening skills. Each class consists of a centering, a small experiential exercise, a demonstration and breakout room practice in groups of twos or threes.
Dates for the next groups:
-Thursdays, February 13-April 10, 10 am to 12 pm Eastern (break week March 13th).

A pupa is the safe place for transformation... in nature this is the cocoon or chrysalis. In Focusing, this is the safety of our Focusing attitude and listening partnerships. The use of felt sense body cards catalyze the process by capturing details and helping us notice our patterns and further explicate our process.
The base of the PUPA Focusing Certification Program consists of five courses that cover a journey using the PUPA process. They are designed to not only learn and teach Focusing, but also to get to know and transform yourself, while creating change in the world— by bringing more Focusing into the world.
The additional training requirements provide the skills to teach Focusing and/or guide someone professionally.

Our Lives as Therapists
with Joan Lavender Psy.D.
Have you had this situation? You really need to share a clinical dilemma about a patient with a trusted colleague. Yet, as you try to describe the situation, a sense of futility sets in - the context is too nuanced to get across quickly - the essence of it is lost in translation.
Yet many of our most difficult or transcendent moments may occur within our therapy relationships. How do we hold the vast complexity – the startling, the extraordinary, and the dark – that emerges within us as well as in our
In this workshop, Irit will guide participants on a journey in Way of life Energy, teaching us how to reconnect with the core quality of life energy – courage.
Live attendance is recommended. All registrants (whether or not you attend live) will receive an email to view the recording after the workshop. Breakout rooms are not recorded. Some familiarity with Focusing will be helpful, though all are welcome to attend.

Are painful experiences from your childhood continuing to hinder you from living more fully?
For many of us, we may have grown up in environments in which we had to hush our inner knowing and what I call our knowing no as a way of keeping the peace, staying connected and out of trouble. I get it. I know what that's like and how confusing it feels when doing what's right feels wrong; whereas, doing what's wrong feels strangely ... right, more comfortable and less risky. It's disorienting isn't it? No wonder it's hard to make decisions and navigate tough discussions!
If you're wanting to live with greater clarity, confidence and ease then this course may be for you.
