Full Description

Integrate NVC and Focusing skills and you will:

  • Offer yourself the same compassionate presence you receive from your favorite empathy buddy
  • Connect with even the most stuck emotional reactions so they make sense and release you
  • Make clearer choices to respond to life as your whole self
  • Make contact with your bodily felt senses, which are doorways into fresh energy and new possibilities

Focusing (also known as Inner Relationship Focusing) is a special way of paying attention to yourself so that you sense the whole way you are feeling about situations or issues in your life. This is different from just having emotions or just getting in touch with feelings. Focusing involves having a different kind of relationship with emotions and feelings. It’s as if you are becoming your own empathy buddy. The result is greater calm, wiser choices, and a deeper sense of connection to your own life and being.

With Focusing, you go directly to the place where you have a deep body knowing about a situation. There is wisdom in our body-mind which we tend to ignore, partly because our modern, fast-paced, head-oriented culture is just not set up that way.

This class is an introductory (Level One) class in Focusing. The curriculum will be presented in the light of NVC consciousness, informed by the principles and practices that NVC nourishes. We will learn to experience ourselves, our inner voices of criticism, judgment, shame and blame, as well as our needs, freshly and from a more holistic angle.

Each class will include a remembering (Focusing attunement), 25-45 minute teaching with feedback and questions, and small group practice, along with harvesting and extended check out. Empathy buddies and Focusing buddies between class sessions will also be included.

To support your learning, the trainers are requesting that you buy a copy of the Focusing Student’s and Companion’s Manual Part One http://www.focusingresources.com/materials/manuals.html before classes start. (There are two options, an electronic download and a hard copy, which will give you some choice about cost.) Homework for the course will include readings and exercises from the manual.

 

Prerequisites: Beginner Skill levels.
