Focusing

Focusing is a natural way of being with oneself and others that is based upon concrete experience. It offers a grounded alternative to abstract concepts and mechanical techniques.

Our bodies synthesise millions of bits of information that our conscious minds do not have access to. By directly paying attention to how our bodies feel we can harness this information in helpful ways.

Focusing has applications in:

• Stress reduction
• Decision making
• Finding creative solutions to vexing problems
• Personal and professional development
• Enhancing the effectiveness of counselling, psychotherapy, coaching & meditation (or spiritual practices)
• Adding a greater sense of meaning to everyday life
• Enhancing teamwork, business environments, development projects & stressful situations at home or abroad

Individual Focusing sessions are typically 50 minutes long. During a session the Focusing Practitioner will guide you to invite your awareness into your body in order to access & learn from what your body knows about a specific problem or project.

Workshop training is always designed to teach both Focusing and Listening skills so that you can eventually practice this helpful way of being with yourself and others outside of professional sessions. Workshop participants often continue to practice Focusing in business and personal situations, enhancing their effectiveness in noticeable ways.

We teach Focusing skills in any environment where people are interested in moving beyond the limitations of conceptual knowledge alone. This is a contemplative approach rather than one that requires physical movement or exercises.

FocusShop works with highly trained Focusing Institute Trainers & Coordinators and offers courses in Brighton, London, and Internationally.
