THE DANCE OF DIALOGUE
Sunday, Nov 15, 1-4pm - A 3-hr spatial/kinesthetic workshop grounded in Nonviolent Communication (NVC) at Sarasota Mindfulness Institute,1530 Dophin St #6. Sarasota. When we are entering into difficult dialogue with another, often we believe we are prepared, perhaps we have rehearsed our words and yet when we step into the conversation our thoughts are blurred, meaning gets twisted, words fail and the outcome is less than satisfying and possibly has created further misunderstanding, hurt or distance. In this 3-hour NVC experience we will do the inner work using body wisdom and NVC to approach those difficult and even scary conversations with clear intention, self-connection & compassion. Be prepared to use your personal experience to work on your own inner dialogue. Early registration by Nov 11: $37 or $60 for 2 people. Send checks/money orders to Mercedes Frace, 543 S Neponsit Dr, Venice FL 34293. After Nov 11 or at the door: $47 for one, $80 for 2.

This creates a stronger sense of belonging, joy and fulfillment in our daily life. For more information contact Anne Karuna Ferrier: 941-228-3885 or anneferrier23@gmail.com, www.coachanneferrier.com
Anne Karuna Ferrier brings more than 25 years of experience as a clinical psychologist, executive coach and facilitator in the field of human change and development.
