FBOUT THE PROGRAM
What is more fundamental to human connection than coming together over shared interests? Often, in a NYMetro Focusing meeting we explore a single topic that touches us deeply. At our anniversary celebration we learned there is also an opportunity -- and a hunger -- to create topic-based (and possibly ongoing) groups.
Tonight we will sense into topics that might inspire such groups, starting with and perhaps expanding on the wide range of suggestions made so far which include: Focusing and Writing, Focusing and Aging, Focusing and Art, Focusing and the Environment, Focusing and Current-Day Politics, Considering Gendlin's Process Model Together, and Learning More about Focusing. These or other new ideas will inspire two or three break-out groups for Focusing and Focusing-based conversation.
Then when the full meeting comes together again, we'll get to share in each group's experience and see what seeds to sow for a continually stronger and more enriching community.
RSVP at rsvp@nymflists.com. A response is not required but it will help us plan.
