Serendipity Festival

All communication is an attempt to serve life-affirming needs and dreams, "the prana of life".  In this workshop we will explore the needs behind what we do and say, building better communication skills in the process.  We'll also gain insight into what can bring us greater happiness in general, deepening connection to ourselves and others.  Based on the work of Dr. Marshall Rosenburg and his "NVC: A Language of Life", our class together will delve into the "OFNR" approach to communication:  4 simple steps to speaking and listening more effectively.  Focusing on real-life situations, we'll hone our skills in fun, interactive ways and we'll uncover the secret that all spiritual leaders know:  When we wed ourselves to the beauty and power of our needs, we become great communicators...and magnificent inspirers.
