Kati kimchi. Episode 55. The Source of Sexual Healing. In this episode we discuss the mysterious absence of sexuality in the writing and teaching of Focusing and other embodied and contemplative practices. We speak about how to safely integrate these discussions into teaching, practice, and therapy.

We touch on the deeply ambivalent relationship we have with sexual desire: on the one hand, we long to feel connected to it, and on the other, we are often afraid of its intensity and the fire it can awaken. We question what 'healthy sexuality' is and how to deal with erotic feelings in therapy.

The Self-Sensing of Life with Peter Cheung On The Living Process Episode 54.

Host Greg Madison

Happy to welcome Peter Cheung from Hong Kong to The Living Process. Peter first found Focusing during his PhD research and this led to Focusing training and eventually teaching Focusing in China. Peter and his wife built an NGO dedicated to teaching Focusing and the Satir method of family therapy. Peter talks about designing and refining their way of bringing Focusing to elderly caregivers and offering Focusing in these centres throughout Hong Kong by training social workers. He also describes the Final Chapter Project: “Rediscovering Meaning, Love and Hope in Life’s Final Chapter”. This fascinating project involves very evocative experiences and a structured life review informed by Focusing. They are conducting a one-year pilot project for this end-of-life/life-death project, and preparing a facilitator’s manual.

Episode 53 of The Living ProcessMay I Exist - First Experiential-Existential Study Day University of Leuven, Belgium. April 24, 2926.Panel Members: Evi Van Mierlo, Sofie Verdegem, Siebrecht Vanhooren and Greg Madison, hosted by: Ruth Marien. Day chaired by: Claude Missiaen. For me, Greg, it is odd to have a long-standing passion for this unique form of psychotherapy and to always feel like an existentialist at Focusing events and as a Focuser at existential events, never quite belonging to either world …. Chatting with Siebrecht many years ago at a conference, I found I finally had a fellow-traveller, and under his direction, now a whole Centre dedicated to this particular instance of FOT (Focusing Oriented Therapy).But of course Experiential-Existential Psychotherapy did not start with us. There were always a handful of therapists who cared about the spirit of existentialism in Gendlin's work and the need for experiential practice in existential therapy. We honour the wonderful work of Mia Leijssen, Germain Lietaer, and Les Todres as well as our close cousins in the world of person-centred counselling and existential-phenomenological therapy.
