Title
Living presence - focusing
Combining meditation with the process of ‘Focusing’, this retreat explores a way of living from an embodied sense of Presence.
In the 1960’s Eugene Gendlin coined the term ‘Focusing’ to give expression to an innate way of being, along with a practice to re-kindle this natural process. In essence, the process of Focusing offers a way of compassionately listening to our lived experience. Through the timeless, sacred act of listening, we give space for the body’s wisdom to be known and creative new life to unfold.
Guidance in the Focusing process will be offered. As it can be amazingly supportive to have another person ‘companioning us’, we will also be practicing Focusing in pairs. Exploring how Focusing can enrich our Dharma practice will be a key element of the week.
