Focusing Met Kinderen

Praktijkboek Focusing met kinderen is een uitnodiging om samen met kinderen stil te staan, te voelen en te ontdekken wat congruente en afgestemde aandacht kan doen – in contact met jezelf en met elkaar. Dit praktijkboek is geschreven voor therapeuten en begeleiders die met kinderen werken.
The Power of Gentle Presence: Insights for Inner Peace and Deeper Relationships
by John Amodeo, PhD
Drawing on over forty years as a psychotherapist and more than fifty years as a spiritual practitioner, John Amodeo offers fresh, compassionate insights into how we can relate more authentically—with ourselves and with others. Weaving together Buddhist and Western psychology—including Attachment Theory and the experiential practice of Focusing—he offers practical guidance for meeting our feelings with gentleness and curiosity, healing shame, and welcoming what’s alive within us.
Making Sense of a Time: A Therapeutic Focusing Memoir
by Robert Lee
There are times in life that are formative, whether we know it or not. Decades later, we could examine those times, try to understand them, try to see ourselves as they shaped us, and see them through different eyes. Why don’t we? Perhaps because we lack the tools and the vocabulary.
'Practicing Embodied Thinking in Research and Learning
Edited by Donata Schoeller, Sigridur Thorgeirsdottir, Greg Walkerden
This book delves into the embodied ground of thinking, illuminating the transition from theorising about the embodied mind to actively practising embodied thinking in research, teaching, and learning. The authors speak from immersing themselves in novel methods that engage the felt, experiential dimensions of cognition in inquiry.
When I Listen People Speak and Come Alive
by Allan Rohlfs
When a friend, neighbor, family member, or stranger shares something important, our instinct is say something, to add something. If what they are sharing is something distressful or discomforting we run to the rescue. To give advice, find solutions, or commiserate with similar experiences. When I Listen teaches a revolutionary approach called empathic listening that actually transforms the speaker in the moment they are speaking. This kind of listening does not seek to change anyone. It is wholly about being with the speaker, accompanying them in the moment. Yet virtually every time someone is listened to this in this way, they arrive at a sense of their life as richer, more expansive, freer than when they began talking.
