The Power of Focusing:
A Practical Guide to Emotional Self-Healing

What People Say

The Power of Focusing has been absolutely terrific. I use it with people all the time. It’s been very very helpful indeed. It‘s probably the greatest tool in terms of pastoral ministry and leading people into a kind of personal and authentic spirituality that I've ever come across. I want to say thank you to Ann Weiser Cornell --you're having a fruitful life!”
– Phil Price, Anglican priest, Australia

 

"I would also like to thank you for your fantastic book The Power of Focusing. It has made such a difference to me. I feel I have now found the key to begin the journey I have needed to make all my life. I find Focusing such a powerful yet gentle and compassionate process – so thank you for your clear and kindly approach.”
– Manjudeva, London

 

“I just bought a copy of your book and wanted to write to tell you how much I liked it. As I read I marvel at your skill with words. The book is truly crafted – easy to read and understand, interesting, concise and really helps me with Focusing. I remember my earlier appreciation for your analysis of words used in guiding – how they can really make a difference. I see that same clarity and depth of understanding again in this book. You have given me a great gift with this book.”
– John

The Power of Focusingby Ann Weiser Cornell, PhD
(Oakland: New Harbinger, 1996)

 

The Power of Focusing is the culmination of Ann Weiser Cornell's search for a way of teaching Focusing so simple and clear that it would be accessible to anyone, no matter what their background or personal style.

 

Since 1980, Ann has taught hundreds of Focusing seminars, all over the world, continually learning from her students and refining her teaching. This book incorporates her latest breakthrough: a way of teaching Focusing without steps, so that the flexibility and flow of the Focusing process is available immediately.

 

Through The Power of Focusing you can experience the clarity and warmth of Ann's teaching, and have an easy and powerful way to introduce Focusing to others.

What Bernie Siegel Said About This Book:

“Most people make life’s important decisions by using their intellect. They think and become logical. Thus their path in life becomes path-o-logical. As a physician, I know how important our feelings are. We store a lifetime of feelings in our bodies. If not felt and responded to, they lead to disease once again, a state of pathology. Learn to focus, and let your body teach you what it feels like to be happy. The wisdom of this book can help you heal the pathology. This book is an excellent resource for healing your life and body while guiding you to your life's true path.”
     — Dr. Bernie Siegel, author of Love, Medicine, and Miracles

 

What Dan Millman Said:

“Ann Weiser Cornell’s The Power of Focusing clarifies an essential human skill many of us have forgotten, and takes it a quantum leap farther along its evolutionary path. Here are germinal teachings and deep human wisdom expressed in a way that can improve anyone’s emotions, well-being, life.”
    — Dan Millman, author of Way of the Peaceful Warrior and The Laws of Spirit
