• A transformative way to connect with your body’s wisdom, unlocking rich, intuitive knowledge about your life and its direction—knowledge you already hold but may not realize.

• Practical tools to cultivate self-compassion, enabling you to meet yourself with greater kindness and understanding.

• Practice in Self-in-Presence, developing the ability to compassionately transcend and hold space for your difficult emotions.

• Tailored support for deepening your Focusing practice, especially when progress feels stuck or the process could go further.

• Advanced listening skills, including techniques to help your partner find a felt sense, stay present with their experience, and more.
