Mindfulness Meets Felt Sense & Focusing: Exploring Somatic Practices for Trauma & Neurodivergent Minds

In this episode of Embodied Dialogues, Jan Winhall welcomes meditation teacher and author Jeff Warren for an engaging and accessible conversation about how mindfulness and Gendlin’s Felt Sense and Focusing overlap - and where they go their separate ways. Together, they explore how both practices can support neurodivergent nervous systems and offer grounded, body-based ways to recover from trauma.
