Product Description

Product Description

25th anniversary edition of the classic bestseller 'Focusing' is a technique first developed 25 years ago by American psychologist and philosopher Eugene Gendlin. Hugely influential, it offers six specific steps you can take to open up your inner world of deeper feelings and intuition - and shows you how to listen to others with more empathy. Short, very readable and so simple, you wonder why we aren't taught this fundamental life-skill at school! --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

About the Author

An internationally recognized American psychologist and philosopher Eugene Gendlin teaches at the University of Chicago and has received three important awards from the American Psychological Association. The author of many books, including Let Your Body Interpret Your Dreams and Focusing-Oriented Psychotherapy, he has also published over 200 articles.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mans search for meaning meets dna activation, 27 Feb 2007
By John E. Canning (London UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The search is over for a book which gives clearly defined steps to understanding the inner self. It takes the concept of emotional and spiritual intelligence, prayer, meditation, ancient and modern philosophy and combines them into a meaningful way to address emotional disturbances. The process is surprisingly pain free and can be done virtually anywhere you can get away with closing your eyes for 5 minutes. All I need now is a book on motivation to get into the habit of going through the process more often.

5.0 out of 5 stars A technique that truely EVERYONE can learn and use., 17 Mar 1999
By A Customer
Having read the recommendation for this book via a "Mega Brain" article, I can truthfully say that this book does deliver the goods - even if a little practice is required! Unlike other books, this is a practical guide and as such is written in a very approachable style with plenty of examples, backed up with what to do if nothing is happening!! This is definately one book that exceeds its monetary value.

2.0 out of 5 stars CD Version is an abridged version of the book, 31 Jan 2002
By Mr. P. A. King (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
This review is from: Focusing (Audio CD)
The CD version of Focusing is basically an abridged update of the book with the author reading about his experiences (straight from the book). I was quite disappointed and was expecting it to be an addition to his earlier works. It Could be OK for those who do not have time to read his book properly - but if you do have time - Read the book it is more appealing and allows you the time to consider what he is saying and to take the information in in your own time.
