Description

Sunday Oct 3, 2021; 1:30 - 4:30pm What if we could find a way to make our requests, or express what is felt and / or is needed (even in hot situations) without your esophagus tightening or stomach knotting up? Yeh…that feels like…freedom and personal integrity, doesn’t it? This $15 workshop (cash only) will take us more deeply into the “what” and “how” of communicating for both home and work place with opportunities to practice the fundamental skills to connect with yourself and your fellow participants. Being able to implement the basic skills prepares us for deeper work in the course. // Please RSVP via this post, walk ins welcome // Parking lot across the street, or street parking available. “NonViolent Communication (NVC) is based on the principles of nonviolence-- the natural state of compassion when no violence is present in the heart. NVC begins by assuming that we are all compassionate by nature and that violent strategies—whether verbal or physical—are learned behaviors taught and supported by the prevailing culture. NVC also assumes that we all share the same, basic human needs, and that all actions are a strategy to meet one or more of these needs. People who practice NVC have found greater authenticity in their communication, Increased understanding, deepening connection and conflict resolution. The NVC community is active in over 65 countries around the globe.” -
