We can learn a lot about ourselves through our relationships with others. Sometimes we may seem to lose ourselves when we get in relationship with others. We may notice that our relationships continue out of obligation, rather than true joy.

This workshop can help you to clarify your needs in a relationship while understanding the needs of your partner. You will learn how to express yourself fully while staying connected to your values and your heart.

During the workshop, you will practice skills that will increase your ability to:  
  • Speak to others in a way that they are more likely to be able to hear you.
  • Ask clearly for what you need so that others will be more likely to meet your needs.
  • Listen to hard to hear communications from others while staying connected to your heart.
  • See the beauty of anger and transform it into clear communication and action.
