Compassionate Communication - starting 19 May

Language is like the software for our thinking.

The words we use are important because they shape our thinking.

Using language that includes blaming, judgement, labelling and criticism is disempowering to us, because it degrades the quality of connection that could be available between ourselves and others.

Compassionate Communication is like learning a new language.

It will give you the tools to break old patterns of thinking - patterns leading to words of  judgement and blaming, comparison and division.

Tools like the ability to

• ground yourself in any given situation
• become aware of and stay connected to what is happening in you and in others
• find the language to express what is alive in you
• show compassion to yourself and others

What Compassionate Communication is not:

It is not about being nice; It is about being real!

It is not about avoiding difficult conversations but transforming it!

It is not about changing people or getting them to do what you  want.  It is about creating connection and understanding. Always!!

It is not a technique or a formula. It is a process that creates a new awareness.

It is something you become!
