Gendlin and ecopsychology: Focusing in nature. Harris, A. Person-Centered and Experiential Psychotherapies, 12(4):330–343, 2013.
Paper doi abstract bibtex Gendlin's focusing emerged from person-centered research and is widely used within person-centered and experiential therapy. An increasing number of people are now practicing focusing in the natural environment. In this paper I develop key aspects of my doctoral research to investigate the significance of this practice. My research suggests that focusing in nature is not only a powerful tool for personal development but that it can also significantly deepen our sense of connection to the natural world. The phenomenological experience of focusing provides a challenge to the idea that every individual is a separate self, a belief that is common amongst adherents of classical person-centered theory. By challenging this notion, focusing in nature adds support to the more relational models of the self found in person-centered and experiential theory and beyond. © 2013 World Association for Person-Centered & Experiential Psychotherapy & Counseling.
