We had an inspiring, uplifting time with René Veugelers’ presentation, Dynamic Expressive Focusing: Being Seriously Playful. We learned about René’s fascination with Focusing– and experienced the foundation of Children’s Focusing through his presence, listening in three directions, video clips of two clients, experiential exercises for ourselves, and group sharing.
A couple highlights from participants:
"I love Rene's visual diagram of the child and therapist's interaction. It has helped me a lot in my work with kids and affirms that being connected to my own felt sense is a must!"
"I enjoyed Rene's talk but also his video and how he was able to also incorporate experiential exercises for us participants. Wow!"
