CEF NEWS AND GOODS E-NEWSLETTER
\n<\/strong>\u00a0
\nStarting today, I am offering a second kind of e-newsletter, Creative Edge Focusing (TM) News and Goods. At least once a month, and more frequently when news requires immediacy, I will send out a compilation of the most interesting activities and applications of Listening\/Focusing in the world, as well as relevant wide-world news and activities relevant to the spread of Listening\/Focusing.
\n\u00a0
\nIn a few weeks,I will offer a separate subscription opportunity to this free News and Goods e-newsletter. But, for now, here is an immediate “News and Goods” below.
\n\u00a0
\nNEWS FLASH! INEXPENSIVE LEVEL ONE PHONE CLASS
\n<\/strong>\u00a0
\nNotice, this will be by international phone call, so you don’t have to leave home, and sounds like the financial cost will be low. Great opportunity to experience Listening\/Focusing training in a phone class, especially for newcomers to Focusing\/Listening, and even for oldtimers who want to experience the style of new teachers!
\n\u00a0
\nLevel One typically includes an introduction to Focusing, with the helpful company of a Focused, or Empathic, Listener, and to being a Listener.People typically take turns in each role, as Focuser and as Listener. Contact Catherine directly at the email address she gives.Here is the announcement:

\nHi –
\nI’m a trainer in training and along with Steve Grainger of Australia, we’re
\nputting together a Level 1 phone class.\u00a0 We’re excited about offering the
\nwisdom of our many teachers, with fresh contributions of our own as well.
\nWe put out a first notice and didn’t get quite the response we’d hoped.\u00a0 So
\nwe’ve got a date range (5 meetings from late August to early October)\u00a0 but
\nhaven’t yet set the exact days and times, in hopes of being able to meet the
\nneeds of a few more people.\u00a0 If you happen to know of anyone who’d like to take a Level 1 by phone, we’d love to hear from them.\u00a0 Along with being a good opportunity in general, this class is also a way to take Level 1 if in
\nthe midst of income challenges.
\nThanks,
\nCatherine Rogers

\nPRACTICE MAKES PERFECT
\n\u00a0\u00a0
\nFall Complete E-Course Starts
\n<\/strong>\u00a0
\nIn the Fall, our free e-course, three practice opportunities by email per week, will restart. It is 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. You are already subscribed to this e-course if you are receiving this e-newsletter.
\n\u00a0
\nAlso, please forward this e-newsletter to any friends, trainees, acquaintences, colleagues who might benefit from either the e-course or CEF News and Goods e-newsletter
\n\u00a0
\nFor four weeks, we practice an actual exercise in three different categories: An Instant “Ahah!” to integrate into your every day life at work and at home, a Felt Sensing exercise to practice this step of Focusing or an Interpersonal Focusing exercise, and a Complete Focusing Session. Actually doing the exercise which\u00a0 arrives in each e-newsletter insures that you can call upon these new skills when needed!
\n\u00a0
\nFor oldtimers, going through the e-course again will give you repeated opportunities to practice and absorb all the exercises.
\n\u00a0
\nFor those who’ve joined mid-year, you can complete your cycle of learning as we continue through the year.
\n\u00a0
\nFor new subscribers, you will have a rare opportunity to integrate Focusing and Listening into your life through careful and continuous practice, as you would with yoga, or meditation, or learning an instrument.<\/p>\n
