Details

   This workshop builds on the Introduction to Nonviolent Communication as a Spiritual Practice, Part I held at Chobo-Ji in October, 2018. In that training by Marcia Christen, we covered core aspects of NVC: empathy, feelings, needs, and self-awareness, all for the purpose of building compassionate connection with others. In January’s Part II, we’ll develop these understandings further and introduce more essential skills: deep listening and speaking authentically, as well
as making observations and requests. We’ll also explore ways to bring NVC as a spiritual practice into our sangha life as well as into our individual relationships. Finally, we’ll continue to deepen our understanding of interdependence, compassion, and shared power in order to foster a restorative community here at Chobo-Ji. There will be plenty of time for active role playing to build skill with what we’ve learned.

Points

  
  • deep listening
  • speaking authentically
  • making requests that lead to connection

Who is it for?
