Compassionate Communication
A 3-Day Workshop on Connecting
Heart-to-Heart in Any Situation
with Luna Cabasés Corral
November 2-4, 2023
Presented in English in Longeval, France
Do You Want to Honor the Full Authenticity and Aliveness
of Your Being in Every Moment?
This workshop with Luna will provide a fundamental theoretical understanding and an experiential embodiment of essential elements that can help you remain connected to your compassionate and loving nature in the midst of any situation—regardless of how challenging it appears to be.
Using the framework of Non-Violent Communication (NVC) as well as the non-dual approach inspired by the Self-Inquiry Method, you’ll explore how to:
- Authentically express yourself with compassion and self-responsibility
- Listen empathically, regardless of how tragic the other person’s expression might be
- Offer (self-)compassion and (self-)empathy
- Cultivate self-love and self-awareness
Content
This workshop offers an artfully integrated array of practices, including journaling, role-playing, body NVC, asanas to activate the heart chakra, heart-based and Hridaya meditations, Self-Inquiry, and group dynamics. We’ll prioritize interactive and meaningful practice, emphasizing the use of the communication tools that we learn and delving into topics relevant to the needs of the group.
Join Us and Explore:
- Transforming habitual emotional/mental patterns and reactivity (blame, anger, resentment, defensiveness) into conscious responses based on freedom of choice and compassion
- Transcending judgments, evaluations, and the need for fixing and solving by connecting to the alive value of the core needs within yourself and others
- Cultivating a heartfelt connection with yourself and others
- Sharing authentically in Truth and nakedness versus closing down in the face of conflict
