A Center for Restorative Solutions
Serving the Greater Seattle Area
"The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeing new sights, but in looking with new eyes." – Marcel Proust.
When we experience our needs not being met, and we also hear that some of what we do has impact for others, it can become confusing, painful and disconnecting. This 8 week Thursday evening intro to communicating and connecting with compassion will create a possibility for us to engage with re-envisioning the shaming and blaming narratives we hold, and developing skills to have more power to increase connection with ourselves and communication with others.
Warmly,
Pam Orbach

Introduction to Nonviolent Communication (NVC)
8-Week Thursday Series | Apr 6 - May 25, 2023 | 6:30 - 8:30 PM PST
Introducing Nonviolent Communication
We will lay the foundation for communicating and living in a way that aligns the choices you make with your values, and holds your needs while communicating in ways that are compassionate and caring.
Each week we will focus on one aspect of the NVC skillset. We will learn and practice together. We will be present to whatever arises from the learning, and we will attend to whatever needs are in the room.
There are no prerequisites for this training, an open heart, and a longing for connection and growth will take you all the way. Join us in this collaboration.
Whether you are a newbie or if you want to be learning in community and would enjoy spontaneity and practice. Brain science confirms that practicing the skills increases the brain's capacity to respond with fluency outside of the classroom so that we can embody NVC consciousness and be fluid out in the world. Every Intro series is rich and different, there is always more depth to get to when sitting in the simplicity. I grow and deepen with each series...
