Philosophy, Focusing & Dreams is for anyone who wants to discover the richness in dreams. Even dreams that seem only negative turn out to have gifts of forward life energy waiting to be tapped into, using the methods taught in this seminar.

Starting with how to remember dreams if you usually don’t, this seminar takes the listener through a way of approaching dreams that includes getting the “help” first rather that going first to the “charged” part of the dream. Methods for “bias control” help the dreamer not bring habitual life patterns to the dreamwork process.

Including five actual dreamwork sessions where Gene Gendlin works with a participant on a dream and then discusses it afterward.

This is an edited version of a live, five-week phone seminar with the author of Focusing and one of his most well-known students.

What You’ll Learn:

  • How to start remembering your dreams

  • The difference between dream “interpretation” and Focusing-oriented dreamwork

  • How to find the positive energy in any dream and keep it

  • The importance of “bias control,” or how to step outside of your habitual reactions

  • How a dream is an incomplete process and how Focusing-oriented dreamwork allows that process to complete

  • How to help another person work on a dream

This started her on a path to become a Focusing teacher, and in 1990, Ann became the first person to support herself full-time as a Focusing teacher. Today, Ann is internationally recognized as one of the leading innovators and theoreticians of Focusing.
