Last year, for the first time ever, people from around the world (8 time zones!) had the opportunity to participate in the Parent Peer Leadership Program (PLPP) in its new long-distance-only format. This year, once again, the PPLP is more accessible than ever for parents who may otherwise have no or little access to this level of NVC training.

On October 2, in every state, in every country, on every continent, people will gather in empathic listening, connecting, and action so that we may see all beings integrate suffering to become free, fully alive, and resolve differences peacefully.

International Day for Empathic Action (IDEA) Events and Activities will take place all over the world aware of each other to create unity, community, and a world-wide understanding of empathy.

BePeace is a combination of the HeartMath technique for centering and accessing heart-wisdom, and the Nonviolent Communication approach to communication. It promises to become a nation-wide peace curriculum taught in schools throughout Costa Rica. For details, see http://www.rasurinternational.org/Charlotte2010.html

Greetings!

How much do you invest in your most intimate relationship--with your partner, spouse or lover? Are there moments where you "miss hear" what the other is saying? Moments where you'd love deeper connection and understanding? Are you wanting intimacy, trust, fun, and joy---and to increase these life-serving qualities over the life of your relationship?

NVC training is a solid "investment" in your future---to deepen/renew the quality of your connection, well being, and the health and happiness of your relationship.

I am excited to invite you to join me for a five day intensive focused on cultivating and dwelling in life enhancing energies -- the Beauty of Needs -- and deepening the practice of Self-Compassion.

In the retreats and workshops that I offer, people consistently share with me how grounding, opening and inspiring these practices are for them. I want to support an inner consciousness of Being that I see as having fundamental importance in the development and cultivation of living life authentically and fully in relationship.
