Join us for a fun, experiential, and moving introduction to the principles and practices of Compassionate Nonviolent Communication (NVC).

Discover a life-transforming communication practice that builds trust, transforms conflict, and creates authentic connection in your relationships.

In this event, you will learn how to create a quality of connection between yourself and others where everyone's needs, even in conflict situations, are held with care and compassion... without resorting to punishment, force, manipulation, blame or other approaches that we end up paying for later.

You will learn how to:

* express yourself honestly and openly;
* hear difficult messages without taking them personally;
* connect with others by communicating empathy; and
* find the gift that underlies all blame, judgment and criticism.
