Demonstrations of Facilitating Focusing
with Ann Weiser Cornell
|
”Thank you, I heard the recording and I enjoyed it very much, it is amazing how you do it, almost like a magician but so subtle it seems the magic happens all by itself...”
"One thing that is most helpful to me in your classes is when you demonstrate. When I did the Level 1 with you on the phone, hearing you go through a session with yourself or with a partner has been most powerful. Hearing W. do her Focusing with you as her partner was amazing. It actually opened up so many possibilities for me – my
Focusing has been more free since then.”
”Studying Focusing with Ann Weiser Cornell for the past two years has been a transformational experience. With Ann’s teachings I am learning to sense each moment, each event and activity, each encounter; learning to sense these freshly as they are happening; bringing fuller awareness to my inner and outer world; expanding and refining my vocabulary, my speech is more precise and thoughtful. Ann’s way with words is the epitome of what I seek in a teacher! Her knowledge of linguistics, combined with her deep caring for the dignity and satisfaction of all people, brings me great joy.” |
No amount of words about the process of facilitating a Focuser can match actually being there when an experienced guide is working with someone new to Focusing.
This is a phone group for those who want to “watch” Ann Weiser Cornell facilitate Focusing. The guest Focusers will be volunteers who understand that their session will be witnessed by a safe and respectful group of people on the phone. In most cases this will be the first Focusing session for the guest.
If you or someone you know might like to volunteer to be the guest Focuser, click here for more information.
The call is 90 minutes. The registered participants will gather and introduce themselves to each other at the start of the call. Then the guest will join us, and will have a guided Focusing session of about 45 minutes, and then leave. This will allow about 30 minutes at the end of the call for a discussion of the issues raised by the process, including: the specific language used, this person's type of Focusing process, and responses to special circumstances (eg working with a meditator...). Participants can also raise questions about people you are working with using Focusing.
How it Works New telephone technology (called “bridge line”) allows a group of people to meet by phone and hear each other clearly for hours at a time. When you register in advance, you will receive a phone number to call at the starting time for the class. This will not be a toll-free number and will probably be a long-distance charge for you.
All registered participants need to be on the bridge line within 5 minutes of the start of the class, in order to create a safe atmosphere for the guest.
Recordings of classes, on CD, will be available ONLY to registered members of the class, for an additional $10 per CD.
Commitment We ask you to commit to a series of three meetings at a time. This increases the safety and continuity for the registrants and the guests... while allowing flexibility to change after every three meetings.
To allow more people to participate, dates and times will change with each new series of three meetings, so if the current group is at an inconvenient time for you, check this page again in a month for new dates.
There is no prerequisite for participation in this phone group.
The cost for three meetings is $120 paid in advance. (That's $40 for each meeting.)
You can register below using our secure on-line store, or call 510-666-9948.
You will be given the number to call for the class once you have registered. |
