Are you seeking a way to deepen your self-connection, access the wisdom within, and open doors to true transformation? Join us for Presence, a 2-day immersive training in Focusing—a gentle yet powerful practice that invites us to listen to the quiet, intuitive signals of the body in a whole new way.

What is Focusing?
Focusing is a unique practice developed by Eugene Gendlin and rooted in groundbreaking research led by Carl Rogers. They discovered that true, lasting change doesn’t come from “thinking through” our problems but from accessing a bodily awareness Gendlin called the felt sense. This felt sense is a subtle, often wordless, inner knowing—like a knot or a nudge within—that holds layers of insight and clarity waiting to unfold. When we learn to pause, listen, and “be with” this felt sense, our bodies reveal the next steps toward healing, growth, and wholeness.

How Focusing Helps Us Develop Presence
At its core, Focusing teaches us to slow down and be present with ourselves in a way that is compassionate and curious. Instead of analyzing or “fixing,” we learn to gently notice what our body is holding, whether it’s an emotion, a memory, or a sensation. This shift from “doing” to “being with” is transformative in itself—it helps us cultivate a presence that is calm, centered, and open to whatever arises. Through this practice, we develop the capacity to sit with our inner experience without needing it to be different. We learn to trust what arises, creating a grounded, embodied presence that naturally extends to our interactions with others.

The Transformative Power of Focusing
Focusing is not just a tool for self-awareness—it’s a doorway to genuine transformation. By connecting with our felt sense, we allow stuck patterns, emotions, and unresolved tensions to gently shift and release. The body’s wisdom naturally moves us in a “life-forward” direction, meaning we feel lighter, clearer, and more connected to our authentic selves. This is a change that doesn’t require force or fixing; it’s a natural unfolding that comes from within. Over time, Focusing helps us build a more intimate relationship with ourselves, one where we can approach even challenging feelings with acceptance and curiosity.

Imagine being able to connect with your own inner experience in a way that allows insight, healing, and clarity to arise naturally. Imagine bringing this presence into your work and relationships, creating a space where real connection and growth can flourish.
