Hear & Be Heard
An introduction to compassionate communication

How often have you lost connection with someone because of misunderstandings and judgments?
Have you ever tried to speak up to make it better, only to make it worse?
Would you rather be able to hear and be heard in a way that brings you closer together?
Compassion, honesty, understanding, connection…
…we all long for it, but let’s face it – it’s not always so easy!
In this workshop, based on Marshall Rosenberg’s ‘Nonviolent Communication’, I will introduce principles and practices to support you in developing compassionate understanding for yourself and others.
We will be exploring skills and tools for …
- keeping your heart open to the human longings behind each other’s words, even during conflict
- expressing yourself fully and honestly (and still being heard!)
- going beyond ideas of rightness and wrongness and turning conflict into connection

All sessions will take place online via Zoom. In each session you can expect to learn and embody specific elements and principles of NVC through a balance of theory and practices. After each session there will also be an optional 30 minutes for anyone who would like to stay longer to ask further questions and/or share more deeply together in the group.
Gift economy exchange:
I offer this course because I believe it is in service of a world of peace and hope for the human spirit. I offer it with trust in generosity, and the joy of giving and receiving to make life more wonderful for each other.
