"I write to thank you for your Learning Focusing CD. My wife brought it back from your Garrison conference. It works. Taking what I’m feeling the way it comes, I was able to hold the whole thing and to keep returning to it. This week has been better than last as a result. Your CD, your voice, the format, everything makes the whole focusing thing seem pretty damn regular. Again, thanks and best wishes.”
– Steve Howard, East Hampton, NY

”Ann, I received the CD and got a chance to listen to it. It's great! I think it will be very helpful for people to hear when they are trying to learn Focusing.”
– Shelley Diamond, Ph.D., San Francisco

”I was listening to your [CDs] on Learning Focusing (& also the Introduction to Focusing tape) recently again. I was struck, as always, by how excellent I find them to be. The clarity of ideas; the examples; the simplicity: it’s all quite wonderful I think. Every time I listen to them, I feel cheered; I find a new gem I’d forgotten and a new idea I must steal. So thank you so much for making these great tools. I was going to do an introductory talk and then I thought why bother, have them listen to Ann :)”
