This four half-day masterclass on Focusing is an introduction to the theory and practice of Focusing. The classic six steps defined by Eugene Gendlin in his 1978 book Focusing are offered here as a starting point for understanding and learning the process.
The format of the masterclass will be a mixture of brief lectures, videos and
demonstrations, experiential practice exercises in small groups, and discussion.
Focusing is an experiential, embodied and evidence-based practice, and can be used for and by everybody, in daily life and in therapy for a wide range of issues.
In EFT Focusing is one of the important tasks. It is also used a lot in emotional deepening and as a mini task, getting in touch with what is happening inside.
Focusing is a fundamental human skill to connect with ones inner life and to acknowledge, understand, and trust it. It is a process of inner awareness, accessing bodily felt experiences as a source of knowledge about oneself in this world.
