\u00a0Summer E-newsletter Slow-Down\/Fall Complete E-Course Starts
\n<\/strong>\u00a0
\nThe e-newsletters are slowing down for a summer rest period! In the Fall, the entire year of e-newsletters will recycle as an e-course, three practice opportunities per week, a walk through the Instant “Ahah!” Mini-Manual and The Complete Focusing Instruction free downloads, and an interweaving of the Creative Edge Focusing (TM) website materials with the work of others within the Focusing community and also in the larger world.
\n\u00a0
\nIf you are just joining us and have never learned Focusing, probably best to start by reading the introduction to Instant “Ahah!” #1: Focusing — Find Out What Is Bothering You<\/a>, which lays out Gendlin’s basic six steps of Focusing.
