As I begin to parent our newborn son, sleepless and wonder-struck, deep questions are stirring in my heart. 

How will we help this tender, beautiful being navigate our complex, struggling world? How will we explain to him the painful aspects of human history and the world he is inheriting?

I can’t imagine being on this journey of parenting, let alone navigating our world, without the skills of Nonviolent Communication. 

I first turned to meditation to find a way to understand and address the root of human suffering. From there, I sought out and practiced powerful tools to bring the inner transformation of meditation into my life's relationships. 

Whether we are raising children, honing a profession, or organizing for social change, communication skills form the bedrock of our relationships and our effectiveness. It’s a core skill that touches our entire life, and one which can change everything when improved.

If you’d like to transform the way you relate to yourself, others, and life, I invite you to join me for Part I of my newly-expanded online course, Say What You Mean, which begins on Wednesday October 19.

Based on my book, this live eight-week course covers the first two foundations of my integrated approach to transforming communication. (Part II covers the third foundation and more advanced skills, and begins in January 2023).

If you want to take this course, I want to find a way to have you there. We offer Continued Education Credits, certificates of completion, group discounts, and scholarships. All of the classes are recorded and available for listening / viewing afterwards. 

Hope to see you there,

Oren

PS: Thank you to all who sent blessings and congrats on the birth of our son!
