If we understand Focusing as the movement between felt-sensing and symbolization, it can be the motor of our creative thinking processes.

Following the thought-ways experientially will provide us a practice of how to think with

This 8-week online programme provides a solid basis for understanding how to bring the wisdom of your felt sense to your daily experience. We will focus on developing ‘Inner Relational Focusing’, how to listen to ourselves, which is the essential first part of learning Focusing. Before we can bring ourselves into relational depth and be with another with presence we must be able to do so with ourselves. This work is very transformative personally and will aid your relationships with others.

An online, interactive workshop facilitated by Serge Prengel. This offering will be held in meeting format so that all participants will see the presenter and each other.
Focusing is based on a natural ability that we all have, so “learning” Focusing mostly consists of noticing how you are naturally good at it. You will see how a natural understanding of it emerges from practicing and discussing it during the workshop.
Attending in person is encouraged as there will be the opportunity to practice in pairs, though all registrants will receive a recording of the class. Breakout rooms are not recorded.

Do parts of you get triggered and then overreact?
When you're stressed, under pressure, or anxious, it's a lot easier to get taken over by your emotions when challenging situations arise. And the consequences can be hard to recover from.
Yet you can nourish your ability to to meet life's challenges with calm and learn how to live from your steady center instead of from your reactive parts.
Join me and begin to develop or deepen your Self-in-Presence skills.
