Engaging with Eugene Gendlin's Words and Ideas
It Fills Itself In:
Addressing What Has Happened Or Failed to Happen in Our Lives
Facilitated by the Planning Group of NYMF led by Rachel Alexander
4/12 6:30 p.m., Greenwich Village. More time & place details below.
The organism can fill in what should have happened in its infancy and early childhood. It can even do it relatively quickly. People wrongly assume that this cannot happen any more because the person is now an adult. Of course the present interaction is not one of nursing or child care. But the present interaction can implicitly and concretely provide the actual continuation of processes that were stopped in childhood. The body has implied the next steps ever since, and will enact them if the interaction makes it possible.
[Eugene T. Gendlin, "Focusing-Oriented Psychotherapy"]
Join us to explore these potent and hope-inspiring concepts of Eugene Gendlin.
How can we carry forward when what needed to happen did not happen? How can we carry forward when what did happen was not what was implied and we now have that to contend with?

ABOUT THE THEME of our 2018-2019 programs,
Engaging with Eugene Gendlin's Words and Ideas
Spending time with Gene's words expresses our deep appreciation and a desire to be closer to, understand and integrate more of what he has given to us into our lives. Each program of the series can stand alone, and the season as a whole may bring us on a journey of deeper understanding. Please join us for some or all!
