Compassionate Communication Virtual Workshop
July 20 @ 10:00 am - 5:00 pm
Through my years of teaching spirituality, I have come to find that there are a few fundamental skills that are required for one to feel truly connected and free from the false boundaries placed on us through our environment. These fundamentals being compassionate communication, mindfulness, and the practice of acceptance & gratitude.
The first skill to focus on is communication as this will affect all avenues of your life. This kind of communication is not just any way of speaking. This is speaking and listening from the heart, known as compassionate communication.
When you can communicate from the heart, the use of judgments, either favorable such as compliments, or unfavorable such as complaints, will fall by the wayside. You will be able to connect with the person you are speaking with and hear their need behind the words they are sharing. This is the same approach I take with spirits, energy, and even self-talk. There will be less conflict as you will become less triggered by a person’s word choice and more interested in what they are trying to convey. As a listener, you will be in alignment with fulfilling both your needs and the other’s needs. After all isn’t this why we engage in conversation?
Take this full-day workshop with me and explore compassion in communication. I aim my teachings more towards highly sensitive people, so throughout the classes you will hear me talk about subtle light energy as well as frequencies and vibrations. Even if you feel you are not a sensitive, this series will still support you. I teach with a flare of humor and truly enjoy creating experiences and practices for you to have in class and at home with your homework. Purchase one ticket and encourage as many family members and friends to join you. The more the merrier. I am fully aware, for the price of one many may benefit, but the goal here is to focus on your growth and by having a tribe around, this will help you in assimilating the information more than ever.
Recommended reading for this series is Non-Violent Communication by Marshall Rosenburg
I look forward to sharing time with you and watching you get more grounded, gain confidence and express empathy all while having a casual conversation.
Topics Covered in Class:
-Compassionate Communication: OFNR: Observation and Pause
Jamie will get agreeance on the best policies for showing up and go over the goals for the series. We will vote on dyad work as some will want to partner up with classmates and other will want to do their practice on their own with friends and family.
-Observation with Needs
Together we will check in with each other. Then we will look at needs and why they are there.
-I Feel _________
Together we will check in and begin to discover our emotions. It is common for a person to wedge everything they feel into eight emotions only when there are endless expressions of emotions. We will address the true meaning of empathy.
-Ask for It.
Speaking up and out is powerful so we will talk about using it to the benefit of all.
-Everyday Street Language
Using compassionate communication in an everyday way.
-Working Through Your Limits
Limits are no longer stopping points but places to grow and expand awareness. You are developing a lifestyle not using a technique. This session will help you integrate your experiences into your foundations.
We will break for 30 minutes from 12-12:30 pm EST for lunch.
All virtual classes are recorded. You can purchase the recording at any time and watch it as many times as you like!
