* This run of the class is full! Please contact Bryn to be notified when the next one is scheduled.

3-Week Class: Mondays, Zoom videoconferencing, Feb 7 - 21; 6 - 7 p.m. PT

NVC teaches us how to listen for observations, feelings, needs, and requests. As many of us have learned, breaking our old habits and listening in this way takes intention and practice.

Bryn is offering a 3-week course where participants are invited to practice these skills through role-play and other strategies. Among the gifts of listening in this way:

  • Understanding people rather than judging them

  • Not taking things personally

  • Cultivating relaxed presence vs. habits that bring stress

  • Respect for other people’s experiences

  • Space to respond rather than react

Facilitator: Bryn Hazell.

Cost: Donations appreciated. Suggested donation $30. No-one will be turned away for lack of funds.

Registration: Small class size, so please register early by emailing Bryn or calling 541-350-6517.
