A Parent Support Group at the Sangha Home at 113 School Street.
This is our in-person support group for parents and people who are helping parents or children.
Let’s provide support for each other by listening to one another. We will discuss how we care for our families, make time for practice, how practice helps us, and other topics.
Our current theme is Nonviolent Communication. We are reading Nonviolent Communication A Language of Life by Marshall B. Rosenberg and utilizing the Nonviolent Communication Companion Workbook by Lucy Leu.
Nonviolent Communication is the integration of four things:
Consciousness: a set of principles that support living a life of compassion, collaboration, courage, and authenticity.
Language: understanding how words contribute to connection or distance.
Communication: knowing how to ask for what we want, how to hear others even in disagreement, and how to move toward solutions that work for all.
Means of influence: sharing ‘power with others’ rather than using ‘power over others’.
We meet at 113 School St. in the Sangha home (also on Zoom)
