Hands-On Experiential Skills, not just Theory!

Attention is the most important skill of life, and it is the basis for all other skills you need to be independent, productive and successful at what you do.  Attention is the ability to choose and concentrate on relevant stimuli. This cognitive ability is very important and is an essential function in your daily life. 

It has become much more difficult to pay attention, due to having instant access to a large stream of incoming information AND entertainment (!) quite literally in the palm of your hand - the cell phones, tablets or other wireless handheld devices. These technological innovations have already impacted our attention span, staying focused and completing the higher priority projects.

Attention is a cognitive and behavioral process which allows us to plan, monitor and regulate our Thoughts, Feelings and Actions.

We cannot understand, learn or remember that which we do not pay attention to. But we DO have the ability to choose to focus and concentrate on relevant stimuli and ignore or allocate minimal attention resources to stimuli that are not important at the moment.

Focusing, focalization is different from concentration. Focusing involves holding an open attention, a non-judgmental observation which is directly experienced but is not found in words, more like Simultaneous attention.

Therefore, in this course we will dive deeper on the Simultaneous Attention and different Types of Focusing, developing unique skills: awareness and observation are of crucial importance to best manage Focalization, Concentration.

We will combine the Cognitive with the Intuitive methods, developing a new set of Skills while we also make it fun.
