I teach Focusing because it is the most direct route I have found to experiencing peace and positive momentum in my life and as a way to contribute to the conscious evolution of life.

You might be wondering how one knows that it is time to Focus with a partner. I mean, overall, life is just fine right?

There is no limit of course, to the unfolding that happens when we are tapped into life forward movement.

Maybe there is somewhere in your life now where you have had a successful habit, are wanting to adapt it and are surprised that a change is not happening easily.

Be curious…  Is the success of your current habit actually preventing you from adapting something new?

Why Focus?

I am often asked about the benefits of Focusing. And my answer always has a new twist because something new comes to my own or another Focuser’s awareness that I’ve talked with. This has inspired me to begin a list of how Focusing changes one’s life.
