The Compassionate Conversations Study and Practice Course is for those who are passionate about improving the quality of their conversations.
These times call for excellent communication skills, whether we are talking lightly about the topics we agree about, or intensely about those we don’t. Every conversation has the potential to transform our understanding and deepen our relationships.
Up-level your capacity to converse more effectively with colleagues, friends, family, and groups about topics that matter.
This course will cover essential skills including:
- Deep listening
- Powerful self-expression
- Reframing
- Perspective seeking
- Transmuting emotions
And crucial topics including:
- Ethnocentrism
- Unity through diversity
- Navigating strong emotions
- Power dynamics & privilege
- Forgiveness and atonement
This is not a course in social justice advocacy class. It is a course for those interested in discovering a new way of being and relating in service of evolving our relationships and culture. The Compassionate Conversations Study and Practice Course is highly experiential, engaging participants in open dialogue and practices. These practices are designed to foster self-expression, deep listening, emotional authenticity, and to address our particularly defensive patterns, unconscious biases, and power dynamics. Most importantly, this training will awaken the qualities of self-confidence, wisdom and compassion for ourselves and others.
You will deepen your capacity through engaging new frameworks and skills, including how to use the body and breath to calm your nervous system, learning to stay present and engaged. You will explore the capacity of conflict skills to create more freedom and ease in your relationships.
