"Less is More" - Online Children and Focusing Conference 2024
"Menos es más" - Conferencia en línea sobre niños y Focusing 2024
Sometimes the most special moments are also the simplest.
A veces, los momentos más especiales también son los más simples.
Children approach Focusing instinctively, the most important thing we can provide is simply our empathetic, listening presence. It can be challenging to stand back and let the child’s process unfold on its own.
Los niños se acercan al Focusing de manera instintiva, lo más importante que podemos brindar es simplemente nuestra presencia empática y atenta. Puede ser un desafío dar un paso atrás y dejar que el proceso del niño se desarrolle por sí solo.

An empathy circle, practiced in a Focusing way, is a regular Focusing exchange, held by the entire group. As such, there is a Focuser, a listener, and the remaining participants act as observers/witnesses. After the Focusing, each are invited to offer an empathic reflection to the Focuser.

Do you:
- Feel stuck in a difficult life situation?
- Suffer, but can't connect to the aching place inside?
- Or feel your life could be richer in ways you can't yet quite articulate?
And do you want to find your own way forward, one that feels good and that comes from you? Inner Relationship Focusing teaches us how to attend to our inner experience in ways that feel deeply satisfying and brings change.

Jeffrey compartirá una breve descripción general de qué es el trauma y cómo nos afecta, seguida de cuatro etapas del tratamiento del trauma y diez aspectos clave del trabajo con el trauma. Más importante aún, espera involucrar a los participantes en una conversación sobre cómo las heridas y los dones se unen y cómo el Focusing nos ayuda a entrar en nuestra herida para encontrar, desarrollar y compartir nuestros dones. El concepto de "Cafecitos" viene de la idea de estar en la casa de un amigo/a y conversar tomándose un café.

Eastern Time (New York time)
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.
