Disk # 1 (96 min) Disk # 2 (91 min) The title "Close encounters with Gene" came spontaneously out of my experience of lively interactions, challenging discussions, many surprises, and deepening understanding of Dr. Gendlin's wisdom. |
DVD # 1 As always Dr. Gendlin offers a question period to participants. Topics chosen and discussed were moving and stimulating: How can I continue to live with the feeling I have with this group; Research results about Focusing alone or with a partner; Action steps; How Focusing is related to Client Centered Therapy; How to introduce someone new to Focusing; Conflict resolution; Being with the inner child; The misuse of Focusing; Focusing in a Spiritual context; Sense of Self; What is Body from the inside; Language - discursive and metaphorical. A spontaneous Focusing session with a beginner Focuser follows the question period. This session is presented in Real Time and provides the opportunity to notice how small steps of Focusing evolve. The session is followed by a lively discussion that includes comments and observations.
DVD # 2 Disk two starts with an extensive presentation on how "Philosophy shifts the whole ground." In this animated and profound address, Dr. Gendlin engages in many topics such as: Language; Body in the situation; Philosophical controversies; The importance of both Science and the First person science. Using several points to illustrate each topic, lively conversations, comments and questions emerged.
