Ann Weiser Cornell
Aging brings both challenges and opportunities, but it doesn’t have to feel like it’s all downhill from here. In fact, this chapter of life can be one of growth, connection, and newfound purpose.

You can develop a positive outlook on the future (and know how to be kinder to yourself when you can’t do that). Join us and get tools, wisdom, and support for every stage of the aging journey.

Dana's photo Focusing Gestures
This workshop focusing partners, clients, and therapists of all approaches to anticipate their respective needs and create helpful non-verbal agreements ahead of, or during, a session. For instance, when someone needs extended silence for their inner process without interruption. Or when you notice activation happening and want to invite yourself or the other to slow down. Or when you need a stretch or bio break. We can find helpful ways to indicate our needs with openness and collaboration. In a spirit of experimentation, we will explore and formulate helpful gestures, signs, ‎etc. - to convey what we are experiencing or ‎needing during various phases of a listening process. This practice brings transparency and greater ease to the interactional space.

Yehudit First teaching Yehudit First
Social Oriented Focusing (SOF) invites us into an embodied practice to untie the KNOTS and NOTS that interfere with relating to others, enabling us to overcome blocks, fears, and automatic behaviours. Imagine being fully present in the here-and-now in a Focusing way, enjoying interpersonal moments with the freedom to be yourself, instead of repeating stressful patterns of separation.

In SOF Course Level 1, we will set out on an SOF journey of discovery from separation to connection. In a safe group setting, we will explore the steps from feeling alone to feeling together, while being our authentic selves.

SOF expands our Focusing awareness allowing us to meet others while remaining intimate with ourselves and our present moment experience, facilitating

Amona Buechler, Coordinator in Training Focusing Skills Course Level 1-5
Relate to yourself and others with freshness, emotional intelligence, and an open heart.
In this gentle and meditative process, both the Focuser and the listener provide a deeply welcoming space for whatever arises. The Focusing way of being in contact with your ‘body’, with your inner sense of something, opens up insights, a knowing that is much deeper and vaster than the emotional and mental dimensions alone can offer.

Sandy Jahmi Burg 2019 Smartview Conversations
Smartview Conversations is a monthly online gathering to explore application of our Focusing skills to daily life and interactions. Our skill emphasis for 2024 is the Power of AND, how we hold our own space in relationship to others and how we hold space within us for both our right and left hemisphere's perspectives. For October, we will explore our left hemisphere's tendency to make assumptions and to ignore information that does not fit its current beliefs.

These webinars are FREE to attend. Both experienced Focusers and people new to Focusing are welcome.

We meet for 1 hour on the 3rd or 4th Tuesday, twice in the same day for different time zones. The times are 11:30am - 12:30pm ET New York time and 7:30 - 8:30pm ET New York time.
