Focusing

Focusing

How to Gain Direct Access to Your Body's Knowledge (25th Anniversary Edition of the Classic Bestseller Revised and Updated)

Summary

'Focusing' is a technique first developed 25 years ago by American psychologist and philosopher Eugene Gendlin. Hugely influential, it offers six specific steps you can take to open up your inner world of deeper feelings and intuition - and shows you how to listen to others with more empathy. Short, very accessible yet also profound, this book is even more relevant today than it was when originally published.

Reviews

  • Focusing is a beautiful and meditative approach to psychotherapy and personal growth. It offers a deep parallel to the practice of mindfulness in a carefully developed and sensitive way.
    Jack Kornfield
