Both Buddhist teachings and personal experience show that we suffer to the extent that we are attached to things being a certain way -- grasping for what we want, or in aversion to what we don't want. At the same time, life energy resides in our desires and longings, and in moving towards what we value. How can have the aliveness and sense of direction that come from fully want ing what we want, while remaining openhearted about the possibility of not getting it? Please join CNVC Certified Trainer Bob Wentworth to experience an exploration around this issue. This workshop is an experiment, so please come prepared for anything to happen!
(Buddhism is not the focus of this workshop, just a point of reference. For an article on this subject from an NVC perspective, see Mikki Kashtan's article in Tikkun.)
