Communication sits at the center of our lives – personally, professionally, and spiritually. This eight-week course offers in- depth training in the foundations of an integrated approach to communication.

Drawing upon the modern disciplines of Nonviolent Communication and trauma healing, as well as mindfulness practices from the Buddhist tradition, the curriculum offers concrete tools to hold one’s own while still hearing others, and to engage effectively and efficiently in collaboration.

Through a combination of mindfulness practices, guided reflections and interactive exercises, participants will develop a stronger sense of presence, greater access to compassion and more versatile, clearer communication. This class is appropriate for both experienced and newer students, therapists and other helping professionals.

Eight Week Series:
Wednesdays, Berkeley: Sept. 30 - Nov. 18, 2015
6:30 - 9:00 p.m.
