Steps of Change
Debs wants to know how change can be established in her life…. ‘When I’m Focusing, the felt sense opens up and gives more information whether by a word, phrase, picture etc. And as I sit with what comes, as if it were a friendly messenger, it opens up again, and so on… My question is that sessions seem to be going well and steps are being taken, I never come to a resolution.’
Question: ‘I get a lot of images when I am Focusing. I am used to working with images. Is that OK?’
A. Some people are naturally image-makers… If you are a person who easily gets images, or if you are partnering someone like that, I suggest that you slow right down when you are Focusing.
Little changes and shifts gradually build over time
Christiane asks if Focusing changes anything in real life. I say yes it does, profoundly. Not only does Focusing enable you to make good decisions with confidence, it builds your confidence in yourself over a period of time. The changes that Focusing brings are small and subtle at first…
“In a person who is open to experience each stimulus is freely relayed throughout the nervous system, without any process of defensiveness.” –
Carl Rogers.
The regular practice of Focusing changes who you are, in the sense that it accelerates your progress towards becoming a ‘Fully Functioning Person’ a state described by Carl Rogers…
‘I’m not getting anywhere in my Focusing.’
There may be a number of reasons why you don’t seem to be getting anywhere with your Focusing, and each will need a different response. Perhaps you are trying too hard. Sometimes parts of us feel pushed or pressurized and don’t want to open up to show more of themselves.
