TIFI Event Rob Parker
Chapter VII is approximately 1/3 of the book. This event listing is for sessions 23-33 (of an anticipated 66 sessions to complete Chapter VII.

Chapter VII, Culture, Symbol, and Language, was in many ways Gendlin's favorite chapter, not only because language and symbols are central to Focusing, but because they raise so many fascinating questions.

Plant climbing Dana
This class invites participants to attune to the resourcing possibilities of our spine and our spatial awareness to support connection to self & encourage movement from our core in everyday situations. We will tap into our spine's vertical connection to Earth and welcome an awareness of our spatial boundaries in other directions. We will then work with a situation in a Focusing way: Exploring body position as an indicator of our state, ask our body what it needs to support our boundaries, and invite a posture or movement as a response. There will be opportunities to sense inside and work with a partner or partners.
