The Focusing Course

The Focusing Course is a short self-paced class in the practice of listening to the knowing that lives in the body.
 
Five short teaching segments and a guided meditation to go with each one, about an hour in all. You watch a segment, and then you sit down and practice. The practice begins in the very first module, so there is nothing to store up and nothing to memorize.
 
By the end you can find a felt sense, which is the body's quiet and unclear knowing, and stay with it until it shifts, so that whatever you are carrying can move, in your own time and your own words.
 
What you receive. Five teaching videos, about twenty-six minutes in all. Five guided meditations, about thirty-nine minutes in all. A short two minute clearing to use before any practice. Everything on one page, yours to keep.
 
You do not need any experience with meditation. The longest practice runs under ten minutes.
 
This is not therapy and it is not a substitute for it.
Focusing was developed by the philosopher Eugene Gendlin. The method is his and I am grateful to him for it.
 
Everything here is taught in my own words.
