WHY tune into an EMPATHY CIRCLE?
Empathy is the glue of society. It builds everything we cherish: trust, honesty, compassion, and cooperation. Although hard-wired in our brains, practicing empathic listening, increases our skills.
During this Pandemic time and the stresses and tragedies we are facing, we need to be heard with respectful understanding more than ever.
If you long to deepen personal relationships, prevent mis-communication, connect with those a bit different from you, and increase positive social behavior that sustains us all, practice empathy.
EMPATHY CIRCLES support meaningful and constructive dialogue and each person feels heard to their satisfaction.
Recent Workshops with Bren
March 9, 2019 I hosted a all day workshop called BUILDING SOLID RELATIONSHIPS at my Brenham home. Photo of a few of the participants.
Bren’s presentation “Keep the Life Flowing” to our seniors group in Sugar Land was very effective and very helpful in learning new ways of building better relationships with people around us. Bren kept us all thinking and participating throughout the presentation which everyone enjoyed thoroughly . She inspired us and provided tools to apply in our daily life activities to connect to each other and identify the true needs of each other. Her message of how a non violent communication can help bring the real peace and love for all will stay with us for a long time.
