Learning A Process Model
by Nicholas Montaño and Joey Massengale
A podcast for people that have some familiarity with Focusing and who are wanting to read/think/live through Eugene Gendlin’s "A Process Model". Nicholas Montaño and Joey Massengale move through the electrifyingly fun and difficult book page by page, modeling in their own processes how listeners might embrace its density and necessary disorientations towards forming new understandings of the world and themselves:"Bring along your copy of APM, send us your questions, and join us as together we enliven and expand our felt-thinking around Focusing, learning, theory-building, and so much more!"

Ch. IV (pp. 24–26) — There is only the whole implying(?)
Hello listeners! We're excited to bring you the next episode in our series. This is another tangle-unraveller, but it also weaves in a lot of personal sharing from Joey and I that touches into the deeper ways we relate this work to other parts of our lives. The opening discussion about how…

Ch. IV (pp. 22–24) – A new kind of thinking
This episode explores, in depth, how even early parts of the text are inviting us into a new kind of thinking than many of us would have typically experienced. This kind of thinking, of course, builds upon a lineage of thought along several lines within the philosophical canon. But its newness...

Ch. IV (pp. 19–23) - The body is the other process that goes on
The time has come to start defining the body in our little APM model. Chapter IV represents the real cliff of difficulty, but we hope the way we dive into the material will support you. Furthermore, I (Nicholas) aim to show in this episode how some of the most challenging aspects of this section...

Ch III (pt. 2) - A Little Model with Startling Powers
In this episode we finish Chapter III, continuing from the subsection "Some Motivations and Powers of the Model So Far", and sharing our reflections and amazements of what Gendlin has accomplished in merely twenty pages. Joey and I have a terrible habit of having long, deep philosophical...

Ch. III (pt. 1) - Getting Existential with "An Object"
So far in the book we have organisms that are occurring as (and in) their environment, who are implying their functional cycles and occurring (sometimes) into them. In this model, there is as yet no differentiation from within the organism between itself, and—well—anything. For a living organism,...

Ch. II - The functional cycle (implying occurring)
In Chapter I, we explored different ways to think of the environment and of space. Now, in Chapter II, we'll start exploring new ways to think of time. Grab your books and join us for a reading and discussion that spans topics such as Focusing, the nature of reality (metaphysics), and how…

Ch. I - The body and the environment are one, but...
We start right before the main text with the very brief Prefatory Note, and clarify how "A Process Model" (APM) differs a bit from standard philosophy fare. Then we proceed right on in, without any further introduction. Exciting! If you've been interested in (1) reading A Process Model or (2)…
