Focusing

Penguin Shop: 3 Clothbound Classics for £33

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.

Learning to access and dissolve personal problems by focusing on the language and wisdom of the body was a historic discovery. Gendlin's genius has stood the test of time and Focusing has become a classic.

The focusing skill can be learned by anyone in or out of therapy

At once a manual and a philosophy. It talks about the body's wisdom, the steps of the focusing technique, and how to discover the richness in others by learning to listen. It looks at the potential for a new kind of relationship and a new kind of society

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

'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.

25th anniversary edition of the classic bestseller

An internationally recognized American psychologist and philosopher Eugene Gendlin teaches at the University of Chicago and has received three important awards from the American Psychological Association.  The author of many books, including Let Your Body Interpret Your Dreams and Focusing-Oriented Psychotherapy, he has also published over 200 articles.
