A 4-DAY RESIDENTIAL WORKSHOP
SEPTEMBER 23-26, 2009
with a
Pre-day Introduction to Focusing September 22, 2009
MANNEDORF (ZURICH), LAKE ZURICH SWITZERLAND
Our bodies do our living... Our bodies don't lurk in isolation behind the five peepholes of perception: we act from the bodily sense of each situation. –Gene Gendlin
Focusing is a somatic practice that establishes a deep connection between body-process and language. When we bring to the Focusing process our own body-centered practices, the process unfolds and opens up to new depths. On the other hand, when we bring essential aspects of the Focusing process to our own practices, we also gain in our capacity to heal and integrate. This workshop is intended for professionals interested in integrating Focusing with our own body-centered therapies.
FOR WHOM: This workshop is geared to teachers and practitioners in the fields of body-work, yoga, movement therapy and dance, acupuncture, body-oriented or experiential psychotherapy, and related disciplines, who also have a basic knowledge of Focusing.
If you are interested in coming but have no experience in Focusing, you can contact Focusing Pathways to learn about upcoming workshops or tutorials that will prepare you for the event. An introduction to Focusing will also be offered as part of this event, the day before the official start of the workshop.
ORGANIZING BOARD:
We formed at the Focusing International Conference in Costa Rica in 2004 as the Focusing and Body-work/Movement Interest Group. We are practitioners from varied disciplines including Feldenkrais, Shiatsu, Trager, Reiki, Acupuncture, Esalen Massage, Yoga and dance improvisation.
