*by L***N on June 26, 2018*

6 stars. Gendlin, a student of Carl Rogers, took things a few steps further than his mentor, in a technological direction.Make no mistake, focusing is a technology or technique that can be taught to anyone of average or above average intelligence who has guts and some inclination toward introspection. It's not something that fits everyone.If you are ineluctably stupid or self-deceiving, this won't help you. As an ineluctably stupid or dishonest person, you won't recognize yourself as such, and will think this book is meant for you.You will buy it and put it aside nearly immediately. That's ok--you've helped boost its rank on Amazon. It's about time you did something nice for other people. </snark>Focusing is said to be meditational. Which I guess it is. But I'd almost call it anti-meditational. If traditional clear your mind meditation bores or repels you, focusing is not that. It is highly intentional, active and verbal. The whole point is to drag up what's not verbal within you and make it verbal. "Drag" sounds a little harsh, and focusing is not harsh--maybe dredge is a better word?If you've ever wanted to be a writer, envied how they express things that you were only dimly aware of thinking the same thing until they said it, focusing is for you.And focusing is fun. It is designed specifically to give you a doggy treat at the end of most sessions: The "A-ha!" moment of insight that you spend $200 a week with a therapist to get now and then.It is also very practical: You can bring it to bear on immediate practical issues and I have found that it brings me to much better immediate problem-solving: I have no idea how to handle this meeting in the morning. And it's really wonderful for slightly bigger questions. Should I change my career? What do I do next about my problem adult child? My boss is driving me crazy, how do I handle him better? I'm afraid my spouse doesn't care for me anymore.I've never gotten bad advice or made a major screw-up because of focusing. Your mileage may vary.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Foundational for all somatic psychotherapists and their clients.
*by H***I on February 6, 2025*

This is an easy, very-accessible read and is a classic in the field of somatically-oriented psychotherapy. I read it when it was first published and have returned to it recently in undertaking the three-year certification training in Somatic Experiencing™. Highly recommended.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Simple and inspiring
*by N***O on July 9, 2024*

A brilliant little book. Brilliant self help but even more brilliant community help. It's a model for a new way of being in relationship, and some of the power of therapy without needing a therapist (genuinely).Please see also Ann Weiser Cornell's "The Power of Focusing" (client perspective), and her extra brilliant "Focusing on Clinical Practice" (therapist/practitioner perspective). The latter is especially nice as it gets into some of the productive weeds of Gendlin's opus, "A Process Model", which is his philosophy work that deftly weaves the complex path towards understanding why Focusing works and much, much more.
