about Nonviolent Communication, this is a great opportunity.  An
internationally certified NVC trainer will lead this 1.5 day workshop at LCUUC
on Friday evening, 10/27 and Saturday, 10/28.  You can learn about the basics of this powerful
practice, which helps us understand how to communicate from the heart with
compassion.  We will also learn how to let go of blame and resentment.  <span></span></span></p>

(NVC) is based on the principles of nonviolence.  With NVC we learn to hear our own deep needs
and those of others.  Through its
emphasis on deep listening – to ourselves as well as others – NVC helps us
discover the depth of our own compassion. 
NVC can be seen as both a spiritual practice that helps us see our
common humanity, using our power in a way that honors everyone’s needs, and a
concrete set of skills which help us create life-serving families and
communities.  <span></span></span></i></p>
