In this Level 1 Inner Relationship Focusing course you will learn: special Focusing listening and reflection skills; language that helps guide yourself through the four stages of a Focusing session; “felt sense” – that moment when you know that something important is happening inside; “Self in Presence” – a comfortable, stance towards the thoughts, emotions and bodily experiences that can arise. Learning is comfortably paced, enjoyable and natural. Focusing was developed by Eugene Gendlin (one of the so-called “super shrinks” because of his great success rate). He first wrote about it in 1967; it has been further developed ever since, both in North America and all over the world.
