Doorways to the Soul 3 - Fall 2023

DW3 is designed to help you take a long, loving look at what’s real. You will deepen in your ability to create unhurried spaces of offering this way of listening and loving to others. At the completion of DW3 you will feel more confident in your ability to guide a Focusing process and you will become a Focusing Oriented Spiritual Director (if you are trained in SD) or Soul Companion (if not trained in SD).

Since you're here, you're aware that Focusing has changed your life in a profound way. And, perhaps you sense an inner tug to help facilitate this kind of powerful change for others.


➡️ DW3 is a 10 month, online cohort to help empower you toward integrating Focusing in your current profession, or just growing more comfortable in bringing Focusing to your family or community. 

➡️ DW3 is the first year toward becoming a Certified Focusing Professional (as recognized by The International Focusing Institute).

➡️ DW 3 will help you deepen in your ability to help another listen to and love God, self and others. We hope you will feel more @E.A.S.E.™️ In inviting others to this wholehearted way of living, moving and having their being.

➡️ DW 3 will begin September 11th and meet on Mondays from 12:30-2:30pm Pacific.
