About Manjudeva (Peter Gill)

A portrait of manjudeva

I am based in North London. I am fully qualified with the British Focusing Teachers Association (BFTA) and the Focusing Institute in New York to teach Focusing to individuals and groups. I have trained with Ann Weiser Cornell in "Inner Relationship Focusing" in the USA and Peter Afford in the UK. I have had over 10 years experience of teaching awareness and meditation skills to groups and individuals and have been practicing them for over 13 years myself.

I came across Focusing on a retreat 3 years ago, and since then I have not looked back. It has made a huge difference to my life. For me it is much more than a therapeutic tool, it is a whole way of living. Focusing has helped me to contact and live from what I deeply feel and value, it has begun to clarify and resolve deeper tangles and has helped me to develop a deep empathy and acceptance within myself and towards others. Life feels richer knowing focusing. I am finding that the body has much to teach me, and I love teaching this to others.
