During the Season for Nonviolence, we are invited to explore what nonviolence looks like in action. This Sunday, March 22nd, guest speaker Clarissa Rae introduces the principles of Nonviolent Communication, developed by Marshall Rosenberg and used worldwide in settings ranging from international diplomacy to families and workplaces.
Through practical guidance and stories of personal transformation, we’ll explore how to recognize feelings and needs – our own and others’, and how speaking and listening calmly from the heart can heal some of the most difficult relationships. You’ll leave with simple tools you can start using right away, even when the other person isn’t practicing these skills.
