You are invited to become a part of our group as we learn the Inner Relationship Focusing process. In this live virtual nine-week course, you will acquire the skills necessary for cultivating radical lasting life change.
The Focusing Foundation Training program is designed and taught by Marie Connors, a certified Focusing Professional and Trainer. This course is structured as two 10-week blocks. The first 10-week block covers Focusing Foundations Level 1 and Level 2. The second 10-week block covers Focusing Foundations Level 3 and Level 4. Each block consists of 10 weekly online sessions, weekly practice partnerships, one individual guided Focusing session with the trainer and email support between classes. This training places emphasis on our bodies as open receptive environments that include our relationships, with vast intelligence and knowing about our life situations. There will be many experiential practices to explore this embodied knowing, inside safe relational meetings.
Serge, Naty, Paula, Vera, and Flor are offering a space where we can deepen our understanding of how we experience spirituality, allowing for fresh meaning to emerge. All beliefs are welcome, including people who feel uncomfortable about the notion of spirituality.
The five of them come with different perspectives on spirituality. So they deeply appreciate the richness that comes from sharing and connecting from our different ways of experiencing spirituality.
What makes this work is that we create a thoughtful and mindful space in which spirituality can be explored as an experience. We can resonate with the similarities of each other’s experiences, and honor the differences between our experiences, when we see them as experiences.

Smartview Conversations is a place where we intentionally practice support for ourselves and each other in living a Focusing way of life, even when our environment is challenging. We will use individual and small group invitations, role play and embodiment exercises to improve our ability to access and act from felt sense awareness in more of our daily interactional life moments. We will improve communication with our own bodies and brains to understand how to support our own sense of thriving in today’s world. We will explore Resonance and Interactive Focusing concepts to bring them into our daily interactions. Our online community is modeled off of the intentional Focusing community created in Smartview Stories. We will cross concepts from the stories with our real life situations. We

Treasure Maps is a 6-day residential retreat, an intensive workshop for people with Focusing experience who want to apply our Untangling® method to life’s most hard-to-change issues.
We’ve been teaching Treasure Maps in 15 countries over the past 25 years, helping thousands of people learn our method, getting responses like this one from Paul Fitzgerald: "The Treasure Maps experience was like a dissolving of an old way of seeing life and having new eyes to engage life with more freedom. I'd highly encourage anyone interested in deepening their Focusing to take this course."

Creating Space for Community is a bi-monthly gathering to explore concepts around inner/outer community building, belonging and thriving. Our May theme is Belonging.

For our presenter, Barbara Dickinson, Interactive Focusing (IF) is the “way in” to learn and teach compassion and empathy in a practical, safe, structured, and effective environment and methodology.
In this Highlight, you will have an opportunity to learn about, or refresh your understanding of, the history of “Interactive Focusing” (IF), as developed by Drs. Janet Klein and Mary McGuire. Barbara will demonstrate, explain, and provide experiential exercises that will give newcomers to this practice enough to decide if you want more. You will observe a full (short) session of IF, including “Focuser as Storyteller”, “Double Empathic Moment”, and “Relationship Check”, and participate if you like in the exercise of forming an empathic essence (“Double Empathic Moment”).
