SUMMARY:A Language of Compassion
DESCRIPTION:The psychologist\, Marshall Rosenberg\, identified specific forms of language and communication that he believed contributed to our behaving violently toward each other and ourselves. Marshall proposed that these forms of communication cut us off from our natural state of compassion. Marshall created an alternate form of communication\, called Nonviolent Communication (NVC)\, that helps us stay connected with our humanity even in trying situations.\nIn this daylong\, we will introduce the basic principles and practices of NVC through a combination of theory and experiential exercises. We will apply this compassionate way of communicating within the group to gain a direct experience of the power of this approach. \nAt Diamond Light Meditation Center\n2791 24th Street\, Room 14 (upstairs)\nSacramento CA 95818\nparking lot in back\, ADA accessible \nCost: $20-$60\, no one turned away for lack of funds \nTo register: email diamondlight.sac@gmail.com\npay at the door\, or to pay online: http://www.diamondlightsac.org/donate/\nscholarships available! email for more info \nAbout the instructor: Sunil Joseph has been a student of NVC since 2004.
