We offer supervision and tutorials for Focusing Network teachers-in-training. Our Models of Training (MOT) recorded at the TIFI website are compatible to the MOT of the German Focusing Network FN
FOCusZ training programs cover atmospheric embodiment. Focusing on the inside-out of the body and the tactile spheres of in-between makes a difference to classical Focusing.
The living body, its aroundness and the situational biotope we live in are timeless living fabrics. Focusing on environmental atmospheres makes these fabrics perceptible. Human interconnectedness comes into play, and experiences of mutual vulnerability show up as dimensions of social resilience (Ubuntu Responding)
Our methods include Relational Embodiment, Wholebody Heartfelt Conversation, Existential Wellbeing Counselling and Focusing oriented Art Therapy FOAT(R)
