with Cory Lockhart

Tuesday, September 27, 9:00 - 10:00am, In-Person with masks at DGCEC

We live in a context in which messages of shame, blame, judgment, criticism, and punishment are all around us. Us vs. Them. Right vs. Wrong. Good vs. Bad. This isn't the only framework available to us. Sufi mystic Rumi wrote in a poem "Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing there is a field. I'll meet you there." What if we practiced meeting in that field? What if we experimented with ways of thinking beyond the binaries? Nonviolent communication gives us a path to the field of connection. Cory Lockhart will accompany you on that path. 

This Nonviolence Tools Workshop is underwritten by a grant from Arthur K. Smith Family Foundation.  It is FREE, but a $10 donation is appreciated.  Register here or call 502-614-5616.
