“Uncovering the Larger Space: 

Embodiment, Meditation, Spirituality and Faith Traditions”

September 8th – November 19th , 2026

Presented by: Russell Delman

Sponsored by: Lynn Preston and FORGE (Focusing Oriented Relating in Group Environments)

* This program is open to all.

Dear Friends,

This seminar supports those leading or wanting to lead meditation, spiritual, or faith groups AND those simply seeking guidance, clarity and inspiration on their own life/spiritual paths.

When at our best as leaders and guides, we are fully present, i.e., connected to self, other and the living situation. This embodied presence creates a sense of trust, safety and reliability, often inviting “the larger space” – that indefinable wisdom that is greater than the sum of the parts. 

Embodied presence supports us in maintaining or returning to a Focusing attitude – open, curious, and welcoming. For all of us, there are times when this is quite challenging. Whether in a spiritual tradition or in any other context, embodied presence reminds us of the Focusing attitude, often opening the door to “the larger space.”

When sensing: support of the earth, breathing and tuned to our external situation, a Focusing attitude is reliably available. We notice when openness, curiosity, and welcoming are present or if we have slipped into defensiveness, control, or fear. Embodied presence is a learnable capacity. In this seminar, through both theory and practice, we will strengthen this way of Being.

Whether you are leading a group, wanting to lead one, seeking support on your own path and/or learning to interact with others about your path, please join us in this enriching, deep and inspirational seminar.

Hoping to see you in the seminar………Russell Delman
