EST (New York)
This class invites participants to explore the resourcing possibilities of five movements encountered in everyday living -- push, withdraw, reach, offer, and receive. Beginning with an upright spine and supple stance at the center, we will familiarize ourselves with these five movements to develop a sense of possibility and flow. 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 complete the action, and invite a posture or movement as a response-- e.g. to be still and observe, prepare for a request, retreat, etc. We will slow down and allow time for fully unfolding transitions between postures and movement.

En este taller monográfico exploraremos una aplicación del mapa del ciclo de la experiencia gestáltico a la experiencia del enfoque corporal. Veremos las maneras en que solemos interrumpir el ciclo de la experiencia según la perspectiva gestáltica y formas experienciales de indagar en estos mecanismos de defensa. Y claves que nos ayuden a abrirnos al flujo de nuestra experiencia.

Eastern Time (New York time)
Focusing Journal is a gentle, creative process of exploration of your inner experience on the page – bypassing the analytical mind and traveling to the surface - as colors, words, shapes, or movement. Flexible visual templates serve as supportive prompts or anchors for your process to emerge with new meanings and possibilities.
These sessions invites alignment with the fall season - the qualities of letting go, unburdening, as well as tending to the inner light. There will be ample space for solo work, reflection, sharing resonance, and enriching our experience.

How do we allow them into our lives? We’ll explore these questions over two 1.5-hour sessions, in our usual way: through movement, play, and focusing processes. Come and experience it for yourself!

The course is an opportunity to spend time with your wanting or project to integrate Focusing into your life—whether personally or professionally—in both an embodied and more than logical way. Like being in contact with a yet undiscovered treasure box. With FOCUSING, a practice laid out by philosopher and psychotherapist Eugene T. Gendlin, you will get in touch with your Felt Sense and be able to develop surprisingly fresh understandings that make a difference, especially in how you are with your special project or issue. By adding certain moves of THINKING AT THE EDGE (TAE), another practice Gendlin created, with Mary Hendricks and Kye Nelson, we will show you how you can speak more and more precisely from your Felt Sense. In doing so, you will discover important details by redefining

Eastern Time
In this time of social conflict and identity politics, it is increasingly likely that the therapeutic relationship is impacted by global and polarizing events. How does the current zeitgeist of social polarization show up in our therapy rooms? What do we do when it does, and what do we need in order to be congruent within ourselves and for our clients? We hope this Roundtable will provide a welcome and safe space to share our experiences, thoughts and feelings about these challenging issues.
