Learn the basics of Focusing in 5 simple sessions
Deep listening is not about analyzing or fixing your experience. It is about noticing what is quietly present and allowing it to unfold in its own way.
Focusing is a mindful practice based on our natural ability to turn inward and organically make sense of things. It develops our ability to stay present with what is unclear, allowing meaning and direction to unfold gradually.
About this tutorial
This free tutorial helps you learn and develop Focusing by practicing it, the same way that a child naturally learns to walk by experimenting.
It introduces Focusing through a sequence of five sessions. Each session builds on the previous one and develops your capacity for embodied listening.
Each session is short and to the point: about 10 minutes of video, and some suggestions for practicing what you’ve just learned.
There is also an FAQ page.
