Empathy Café:
“Would you like to add more peace to our world?”
“Would you like to experience more inner peace within yourself?”
“Would you like more connections with people in your life?”
“Did you ever wonder how you can help the world to become a more wonderful place to live?”
We are hosting an Empathy Café because we believe that the practice of empathic listening and authentic speaking helps us make life more wonderful, and builds the capacity for more connection and compassion in the world.
You are invited to practice with us. For those new, we offer some structure and guidance to help you get started. For those experienced, you can really contribute to holding the space. To be clear - this is not a workshop where we teach you, this is a space to practice!
A space hosted by Diana Hu and Mark Marijnissen.
