Focusing and You

BENEFITS OF FOCUSING:

Focusing offers a safe, powerful and supportive process that will enable you to:

Built trust in your own knowing

Quiet self-criticism and activate your capacity for inner guidance

Keep company with all your feelings, without fear of being overwhelmed or hijacked by them

Learn to listen to what at first may seem like vague or illegitimate inner stirrings, and nurture your sense of aliveness and belonging to life—your own life and the bigger whole

Learn to turn to your body as an ally and friend, rather than an enemy

Support your way toward profound fulfillment with creativity and kindness.

Focusing is a foundational process in the strengthening of emotional intelligence.  It strengthens our capacity to know and acknowledge our feelings and their connection to our thinking and acting in the world. 

Recent studies in neuro-psychology point to the interconnectedness of feeling and thinking, making us more aware of how our cultural institutions are failing us by excluding emotional self-awareness and basic psychological literacy from their curriculum.

Focusing training offers a practical and powerful process that guides us toward emotional self-awareness and a more hearth-felt way of living—a healthy antidote to the growing alienation and violence of our world, inner and outer, far and near.
