Want to watch as Ann Weiser Cornell guides someone through their very first Focusing session?
Focusing can be puzzling to talk about. It can be hard to learn from a book or a video. But when someone is actually taken through the process, you get it! Be present to observe as Ann guides three first-time Focusers (one each week) - and then comment afterward. The guest Focusers are volunteers who understand that their session will be witnessed by a safe and respectful group of people.

In 2023, we began a tradition of having an annual online "Honoring Milestones" ceremony. The ceremony begins by acknowledging all those newly certified by TIFI and those who have become Coordinators (who are also acknowledged monthly in our InFocus News Feed, and on our Milestones page on focusing.org). Toward the end of the Honoring Milestones ceremony, we take time to remember Coordinators who have recently passed. All members of The International Focusing Institute are warmly welcome to attend this online ceremony.

Eastern Time (New York time)
This practice is different from “regular” journaling. The workshop will invite exploration and transformation of your inner experience on the page – as colors, words, shapes, or movement. Dana will provide flexible visual templates that allow participants to adjust and re-invent as needed. Bypassing the analytical mind, we will let signals from our bodily awareness to travel through the hand to the page. As this process occurs, felt meanings begin to emerge. We will pause to witness what we are holding, select affirming words, and hone the potential to take the process deeper. There will be ample space for solo practice, reflection, and sharing.
25 USD per session.
Dates & Times:
Tuesday, Oct 8th at 11am-12:30pm or Thursday, Oct 10th, 3:30-5pm
