Choosing Life - an introduction to Compassionate Communication

Choosing Life

Everyday communication is often characterised by reactivity, misunderstanding and a lack of the connection we long for in relationship. 

Yet communication brings opportunities into our life to experience awareness and compassion, with others and with ourselves.  Compassionate Communication is a means of exploring how we make choices in our communication, and provides a pathway to the compassionate and empathic understanding of others and ourselves.

Reasons for coming on this course include:

• Noticing that relationships with partners, parents, children or friends exhibit a repeated pattern, feel stuck or are otherwise proving less fulfilling than wished
• Being aware of patterns of behaviour such as irritability, anger, lethargy, reactivity, anxiety, that are not proving life-serving
• A lack of sense or purpose or direction in life.
