Focusing: How to Open Up Your Deeper Feelings and Intuition

Without tapping the deeper bodily level, which is at first always unclear, one would stay stuck with the thoughts and feelings of what the problem appears to be at the beginning.

Wait quietly for fresh answers to come from the inside, from the bodily felt sense of whatever situation is troubling you.

“What would it take for this to feel OK?”)

One must go to that place where there are not words but only feeling. At first there may be nothing there until a felt sense forms.

Focusing is not work. It is a friendly time within your body. Approach the problem freshly later, or tomorrow.

Let your body return to its natural state—which is perfect. The body can feel completely at ease and natural every moment. Just let it.

there is a third choice: let the body feel whole and sound, don’t become the embodiment of your troubles, just have them in front of you.

You will soon deeply experience that once what comes with a shift is received, another shift will come.

Every bad feeling is potential energy toward a more right way of being if you give it space to move toward its rightness.
