And whatever your challenges may be, this program will give you the opportunity to approach life from the driver’s seat, able to respond to what life presents with heartfelt care for all.

Come discover the ways in which forgiveness, mindfulness meditation, and despair work can fit seamlessly into and ultimately strengthen your NVC practice.

You’ll deepen your ability to love animal nature — especially human nature — and learn how you might weave compassion into every thought, word, and action.

Habits, patterns, and judgments: automatic reactions like these can easily get in the way of opening to the aliveness of each present moment.

If you’re a wounded healer who’s willing to dive into the deepest of all emotions — to witness the tender experiences you’ve never before dared to feel — this course offers you a whole new world.

What exactly IS empathy? Empathy is the connection that happens between you and another when you experience your differences while holding on to underlying threads of commonality. In this course, John will be sharing in-depth practices designed to give you the ability to speak and listen from a place of empathic presence, as well as a Self-Connection Practice specially formulated to help you come back to that empathy connection when you’ve gotten triggered into “fight-flight-freeze.”

A house that is built to be sturdy, yet flexible can stand up to many years of challenging weather – it can survive - even thrive in the vast variety of circumstances known as everyday life. Both Buddhism and NVC can provide a sturdy support system for this kind of home. They offer you skills to help you remain open to whatever life offers you, to be in harmony with the flow, and they provide a sheltering space held together by acceptance, compassion and loving kindness.

When you reach “across the aisle” to others who hold differing levels of power, privilege, or rank — or who come from vastly different cultures — you may feel as though you’re about to step into a minefield, where even your best attempt could inadvertently trigger an explosion. Join Roxy and change it up! You’ll learn practices that can help you safely navigate difficult or confusing situations, and enjoy plenty of space for practice time, too.

Please join us on the fourth Saturday of each month for a 2 hour session and enjoy a taste of living within our empathic community, as well as a brief training and practice with our trainers. You will learn concrete skills and steps for practicing compassion and leadership in your life.
