More Joy, Less Strife: An NVC Workshop for Couples
With Kathy Simon, Ph.D.
Sunday, October 7, 9:30am-4:30pm, Oakland, BayNVC office
Our intimate relationships are so important to us, and yet sometimes we struggle to connect with our partners, struggle to understand them, struggle to express ourselves both authentically and lovingly. In this workshop, you will explore how to use both big and small challenges in your relationship as opportunities to grow both individually and as a couple. We'll work on sharing truth honestly -- without blame; opening yourself to vulnerability, without losing power, and choosing compassion -- both for yourself and for your partner.
This workshop is open to couples with NVC experience or new to NVC. For more information, click here, or contact Kathy@baynvc.org.
