2009 Events
Nonviolent Communication Practice Groups. By studying and practicing the principles of nonviolent communication together, we will increase our ability to listen empathically and to communicate our authentic feelings and needs. We will be using the book Nonviolent Communication, A Language of Love by Dr. Marshall Rosenberg. No previous training or experience is necessary, just a desire to learn. If you are interested, we encourage you to join one of the following groups. Everyone is welcome. Just come. Let us enter the Season of Nonviolence with the intention of improving our communication and relations with others. The book will be available for purchase.
