In an enriching session on embracing the role of grandparenting and elderhood through Nonviolent Communication , the facilitator explores the transformative power of connecting with and honoring our ancestors—land, blood, and spiritual. The session delves into how NVC can aid in navigating the complexities and joys of being an elder during challenging times, such as COVID-19. Participants engage in reflective exercises to identify needs nourished by elders in their lives and discuss strategies to cultivate meaningful connections with younger generations. This journey of self-discovery and connection emphasizes the importance of empathy, understanding, and the continuous practice of NVC in fostering deeper family bonds and embracing one's role as an elder with grace and purpose.Â
