September 14, 2010
Shalom Retreat Center, 1001 Davis St., Dubuque, IA 6:30 – 9:30pm Presenters: Pat R. Farrell OSF, MSW & Marian Klostermann OSF NOTE: Both facilitators have presented workshops on this topic in this country and abroad. Nonviolent communication (NVC) is a way of speaking that facilitates the flow of communication needed to exchange information and resolve differences peacefully. Someone has said that the principles of NVC can literally change the world. They can also change the quality of life with one’s spouse, children, co-workers and anyone else with whom one interacts. Nonviolent communication focuses our attention on compassion as our motivation, rather than fear, guilt, blame or shame. It emphasizes taking personal responsibility for our choices and improving the quality of our relationships as our goal. It is effective even when the other person or group is not familiar with this process. Offering: $10. Call 563/582-3592 to register by Monday, Sept. 13. Admission charged.
