\>\>\>\>\>\>\> All Info and registration here: https://interbeing\.ch/living\-diversity/ **– *Understand our differences and connect in conflict* –** In this course, we explore together how we can be with each other in our differences. We learn how to communicate more effectively with our loved ones, colleagues and even with people who share opposite opinions. * How can I feel understood, even when you see things differently? * How can I connect with people who think, feel, or live differently from me? * How to navigate conflict without losing myself or the other? * How to meet diversity with curiosity instead of fear? Before connecting with others, we get to know ourselves: Find out what is behind our triggers and judgments, identify our feelings and needs. This inner clarity strengthens our self empowerment and the ability to meet others on eye level instead of betraying ourself, giving up our wishes, or dominating the conversation. We learn to better understand each other in our differences and invite cooperation. We explore movements beyond polarizing debates, while staying true to ourselves, so we can belong a bit more rather than merely fit in. ## We research how to: * Listen more deeply to ourself and gain inner clarity about our needs and what really matters to us * Realise when we need self care before connecting with others * Find inner clarity when we’re triggered * Stand honestly for our needs, express our wishes and invite cooperation * Grow capacity in understanding other viewpoints * See the beautiful messages behind our judgments and the judgments of others * Be in conflict with care and connection **Facilitation Style:** During each session, we offer theoretical input, live demonstrations, group discussions, and two to three guided exercises. We share insights and tips inspired by Nonviolent Communication (NVC) by [Yoram Mosenzon](https://www.connecting2life.net/trainer/yoram-mosenzon/) and Marshall Rosenberg. But foremost we invite you to find your own way. To develop your own communication style with your inner parts and your fellow humans. Part of the sessions will be shaped by the wishes and interests of the group. We might offer themed evenings that dive deeper into specific areas of diversity where staying connected can be difficult (such as race, gender, sexual orientation, neurodivergence, mental health, illness and disability, diet, relationship styles, cultural background, political views, and our ways of relating to money and consumption,…) or explore more depth some conflict situation. You’re warmly invited to bring your personal situations so we can work with concrete, lived experiences. \>\>\>\>\>\>\> All Info and registration here: https://interbeing\.ch/living\-diversity/

**Let's get DIRTY!** In this creative **pottery workshop,** we'll create a lovingly designed **cat bowl** together . You'll work with real clay and create a unique work of art step by step. The finished cat bowl is perfect as a decoration, a jewelry dish, or a small, handmade gift for cat lovers. The workshop is designed so that **no prior knowledge is necessary** . Whether you're working with clay for the first time or already have experience, I'll guide you through the entire process and show you everything at your own pace. The focus is on the joy of creative work and the experience of creating something unique with your own hands. At the beginning of the workshop, you'll have **an hour to knead and model** . During this time, you'll learn how clay feels, how to prepare it properly, and how to create a stable base for your cat bowl. Together, we'll shape the bowl's body and create typical feline features such as ears, face, and paws. I'll show you step by step how to bring your design to life and what to pay attention to so that your bowl is both stable and aesthetically pleasing. In the second part of the workshop, we'll focus on **painting your cat bowl** . You'll have about an hour for this as well. You can choose colors, add patterns, or give your cat a completely unique look. Whether playful, simple, or colorful – every cat bowl will be a truly one-of-a-kind piece. I'll be happy to help you choose colors and give you tips on how to make your creation look its best. If you'd like **to create a larger piece** , that's also possible. In this case, there will be an **additional charge of 10–20 CHF** , as more materials and time will be required. Just let me know during the workshop, and we can find the right solution for your project together. **Finishing your ceramic piece:** After the workshop, your piece will remain in the studio for approximately two days to allow the clay to dry completely. It will then be fired twice. After the first firing, your eggshell will be glazed to give it a beautiful shine, make it durable, and food-safe. During the second firing, the glaze permanently bonds to the clay. The entire waiting period is at least two weeks. **For whom?** The "Cat Bowl" pottery workshop is **suitable for everyone** – children and adults alike. Beginners are very welcome. The course offers a relaxed atmosphere where you can unwind, be creative, and work without pressure. At the end, you'll not only take home your own handmade cat bowl, but also a wonderful creative experien

In the Decoden Workshop, you can **customize various objects according to your own style** . A selection is available. * **picture frame** * **cases** * **Handheld mirrors & table mirrors** * **jewelry box** * **hair clip** You decide which object you want to decorate and how playful, colorful, or minimalist your design should be. Each piece is unique and reflects your personal creativity. A major advantage of the Decoding Workshop is its **flexible duration** . You'll need approximately **15 to 30 minutes** per item , depending on the level of detail and design. This makes the workshop suitable for both short creative breaks and longer crafting sessions. You can also create several objects in succession if you'd like to try out different designs. The **price starts at CHF 30 per item** . Included in the price are **one paint color and 20 charms** .
