Focalizing
Focalizing with Silenia Gil Rhoads
A somatic alternative to traditional talk therapy
Focalizing is a powerful somatic (body-based) healing practice that invites you to gently turn your awareness inward—to the wisdom and signals already present in your body.
In our fast-paced world, it’s easy to live from the neck up, disconnected from the messages that our body is quietly sharing. Focalizing brings you back into relationship with your physical self—its sensations, images, emotions, and subtle cues—offering a path to healing, clarity, and calm.
It’s not about analyzing or fixing. It’s about listening deeply and following your body’s lead with compassion and curiosity.

What Can Focalizing Support?
This gentle, focused practice can help you:
Reduce stress, overwhelm, and anxiety
Heal from past trauma and emotional pain
Gain clarity in relationships or life decisions
Reconnect with your body and inner knowing
Access creativity, peace, and presence
Explore unresolved physical, emotional, or spiritual concerns
You don’t need to be in crisis to benefit. Many people simply come to slow down, listen, and remember who they are.
What to Expect in a Session
Each Focalizing session is one-on-one and tailored to your needs. You can attend in-person or virtually, from wherever you are in the world.
Initial 2-Hour Session
We’ll begin by discussing what’s present in your life—this may be a specific issue (physical, emotional, mental, or spiritual) or a desire to explore your inner landscape more deeply.
From there, Silenia will gently guide you through a verbal meditation. You’ll be seated, relaxed, and invited to close your eyes if comfortable. You’ll begin to notice sensations, images, feelings, or memories as they arise—like a conversation between your awareness and your body.
You don’t need any special training or skill—just a willingness to follow along and share what arises.
At the end, you may feel calmer, clearer, lighter, or more deeply connected to yourself.
In this session, we’ll also discuss whether Focalizing, Family Constellations, or a combination feels like the right path forward.
Ongoing 1-Hour Sessions
These follow-up sessions continue the process, often uncovering deeper insights or offering support for specific challenges.
After the Session
Focalizing sessions can feel energizing, calming, or emotional. Sometimes you may feel the effects right away—other times, the insights emerge slowly over days.
You might notice:
Shifts in posture or breath
New thoughts or realizations
A softened response to stress
A feeling of lightness or calm
If trauma is part of your story, it’s completely normal if it takes a few sessions to fully connect. Silenia creates a safe, grounded space where everything is welcome.
As you integrate the experience, you’re encouraged to rest, stay hydrated, and journal or reflect. Having a trusted therapist, healer, or close friend can also be supportive during this time.
Who Is Focalizing For?
This practice is for anyone seeking:
A somatic alternative to traditional talk therapy
Relief from stress or emotional overwhelm
A grounded path to trauma healing
A deeper relationship with their own body and spirit
A gentle space to feel seen and supported
You don’t need to know exactly what you’re working on—just bring your curiosity, and your body will do the rest.
Begin Listening to Your Body’s Wisdom
Focalizing offers a simple yet profound invitation: slow down, tune in, and trust the intelligence within you.
Whether you’re working through something difficult or simply longing to feel more connected, this practice meets you exactly where you are.
