Trusting Beyond Words in Therapy with Salvador Moreno López on The Living Process with Greg Madison. Episode 51.

Prof. Salvador Moreno López talks about organismic wisdom as he finds it through Focusing and in therapy sessions. Salvador emphasises the importance of trusting bodily expressions, sounds, gestures, chanting, as well as opening up to the body’s senses. He touches on the topics of empathy, Gendlin’s philosophy, intuition, as well as integrating the philosophy of Paulo Freire and María Montessori into his teaching and his practice.

His training as a psychotherapist and consultant began with the Person-Centered Approach (Carl Rogers) and later with the Philosophy of the Implicit and Focusing (Eugene Gendlin).

Discovering Gendlin’s Focusing at 90 with Julie Friedeberger

This celebrates EPISODE 50 of The Living Process as well as Gendlin's 100th anniversary. Julie shares her life story, including her Jewish heritage and the history of persecution of her family, her husband's persecution during the Second World War and sharing this history with Gene Gendlin and his escape to America. Julie worked on the original research with Gendlin in the late 1950s and was a client in that research.

She discusses her move to England, and her dedication to teaching and writing about Yoga. Julie also talks about the challenges of her own cancer and caring for her husband with dementia, which took years to recover from. Therapy and Focusing played a significant role in her recovery.

At 90, Julie rediscovered Gene’s work and began guided Focusing sessions, now pursuing practitioner training. This episode is a heartfelt tribute to Gene’s 100th anniversary, Julie's life story, and the 50th episode of The Living Process.

The Living Process with guest, Monica Gomez Galez, hosted by Greg MadisonBiodecoding & Wholebody Focusing. Episode 49 Monica tells many fascinating stories about her Focusing journey and her life experiences. For example at her first Focusing event she shared a cigarette with a man outside, telling him that she thought these Focusing people are crazy. That man turned out to be Eugene Gendlin. Monica combines Biodecoding, a way of working with physical symptoms, with Wholebody Focusing. Each physical symptom points to a solution which returns the whole being to its balance. Through Biodecoding and Focusing she has a better understanding of her own Body History, and has been able to evolve her listening practice to include an awareness of biological function. These ideas are based on an approach by psychotherapists and researchers Christian Flèche, Dr. Ryke Gerd Hamer, Marc Fréchet, and others.
