Lindsay Gibson

Cathy Rowan 

Focusing has enabled me to transform my life from an existence of micromanaging chronic pain to one of finding myself again. The Focusing process gently created showed me how to feel safe living in my body rather than being stuck in dissociation and freeze which had underpinned much of the pain.

Vera Rolfine Fryd Lyngmo 

Hello! :) One of the greatest things about Focusing is that it allows me to keep practicing standing in 'Not Knowing'; I don't have to choose between what seems contradictory from the everyday perspective. Plus I get to be with others as they discover genuine fresh insights from inside. Yay!

Angela Hicks 

I first started Focusing in 2002. I soon realised I'd found something special. Focusing was life changing for me and helped me to deal with many issues that had previously been blocking me. I trained as a Focusing practitioner and then a Focusing teacher as I want other to benefit as much as I have.

Sarah Paul 

Focusing has become one of my most treasured resources for finding clarity, inspiration, and meaning - both through the practice itself and through exploring the philosophy it's founded on. I love seeing others discover their own capacities for Focusing, and its value for them.

Peter Afford 

I'm something of an old timer with Focusing - I've been immersed in it for most of my adult life. It's a reflective practice that finds its way into most things I do. I've also been studying neuroscience for a long time - Focusing helps in understanding how our brains and bodies work.

Having practised meditation for years and being a mindfulness teacher, I luckily found focusing. To me focusing is a gateway to self-acceptance and self-compassion. It is in the spirit of 'everything is welcome' that I now share focusing and mindfulness with others.
