What we’re about
An online gathering to learn, develop and practice skills in the process of Nonviolent Communication / Compassionate Communication facilitated by Owen Kinser. We will focus on the basic principles of the process using the four components of Observation, Feelings, Needs and Requests beginning with definitions, discussing what it is and what it is not and how to incorporate it into your life.
Designed for beginners with little to no knowledge or those who'd like to refresh their knowledge and skills.
Beginning August 9th 2022, we will meet for an hour and a half once a week for a 4 week period as an introduction and then repeat and continue to immerse deeper into the process as we go according to the needs of the group.
General Outline of a meeting:
Greet, introduction and brief check in with each person
Mindfulness / Self-Reflection activity
Facilitator - Concepts to focus on for the meeting
Speak and model the concept / process
Participants - ask questions for clarity and then practice with each other or with the whole group

A donation of 10 - 25 dollars is recommended for each class and if it is difficult to meet that criteria, please reach out to me because I will not turn people away because of costs. I want to honor the needs of everyone.
