Start the New Year Mindfully

Dates: 5 Saturdays, beginning February 4, 9:30 to 11am.

You’ll learn how to be present in ways that will help you know what you really want and need.

Cost: $180. (7 CEUS for social workers and counselors). Following the class there will be opportunities for  more practice. Since the group size is small, contact me to save a space. If you know someone who might benefit from the workshop, please pass it on.

I get a lot of questions about the classes, such as what focusing is for and what you can get out of it?  I thought I’d answer some of those here. Want to know more? Read on. 

What will I get out of the focusing/mindfulness training?

A way of listening to yourself and others that you can use at any moment; a way of trusting your own experiencing and realizing you know more than you think; a way of being calm and alert in the midst of stress, frustration and more.

What makes Focusing different? 

Focusing is body-oriented, not just words. It’s about paying attention to your felt sense of a situation and making your feelings clearer so you can use them to guide your next steps. Focusing empowers you to make choices from a deeper awareness and get in touch with your own inner knowing.

What do people use Focusing for?

Focusing can enhance and deepen every part of your professional and personal life. Some powerful uses of Focusing include:

• Releasing blocks to action
• Making clear decisions
• Knowing what you really feel and want
• Releasing emotional burdens
• Transforming self-criticism
• Nurturing a sense of calm and self worth
