Summary
What is focusing? Based on research at the University of Chicago, focusing is a new technique of self therapy
that teaches you to identify and change the way your personal problems concretely exist in your body. Focusing
consists of steps of felt change. Unlike methods that stress "getting in touch with your feelings," there
is a built-in test: each focusing step, when done correctly, is marked by a physical relief, a profound release
of tension. Focusing guides you to the deepest level of awareness within your body. It is on this level, unfamiliar
to most people, that unresolved problems actually exist, and only on this level can they change.
