Focusing -

Great free resource online. Focusing was a technique discovered by Geldin who found that during therapy sessions clients would often experience a shift, this shift was connected to a felt sense. Focusing teaches people to "be in presence" with themselves ie learn to listen to the body and see how it feels. I would liken it to learning how to hold the different parts of your personality when often they are in tension in a non-judgemental way.

Exhibition of Japanese artists work


Me and my old friend Lorna Crabbe who shared a house for a bit at Uni have put together this show of Japanese artists in Hastings as Part of the Coastal Currents Festival she has co-organised. Titled Omiyage:an Exchange project, we plan to bring some British artists to Tokyo next year. The show includes the work of 11 eleven emerging and established artists and designers.

I forgot about this page. Or rather I got busy with other things, as an ENFP this can happen a lot.
Myers Briggs personality tests in my case feels quite right. Suggested career paths include
  • Consultant
  • Psychologist
  • Entrepreneur
  • Actor
  • Teacher
  • Counselor
  • Politician / Diplomat
  • Writer / Journalist
  • Television Reporter
  • Computer Programmer, Systems Analyst, or Computer Specialist
  • Scientist
  • Engineer
Thats ok, I am in the right area, kind of. Except that I need to FOCUS. This feels as if I am letting all those exciting things I notice go to waste. On this site comparisons with ADHD were made. Interesting though the idea of tribes.

HUMAN TRAFFICKING

Other news is that I have started a blog specifically to highlight Anti Trafficking campaigns. I would like to look at Arts and Social Justice but I think I will do that here (stay focused!).Check it out FightSlavery.
