ONLINE MONDAYS 4-5PM Eastern • Sep 11, Sep 18, Oct 2, Oct 9
In this four-part workshop series, we will learn techniques for mindfully speaking and listening that will allow us more ease in everyday conversations and improve our ability to communicate with ourselves and other people. Our practice will be founded on self-understanding and self-compassion, mindfulness, Focusing, and Nonviolent Communication (NVC).
Each week we will center with a guided meditation, read/discuss one aspect of mindful speaking and listening, have a practice session with another person in the class and time for reflection with the group. Limited to 20, no experience in anything required. This is a virtual series.
