Self-compassion is essential for healing trauma and restoring your wholeness. It is also an antidote to reactivity and separation, allowing presence to emerge.

In developing presence, you can become what the world needs most in these times of intensity and chaos. This work can strengthen your skills to be more fully in relationship with all that life offers while allowing your heart to be moved by what is alive in you and with others.

This program aims to continue the deepening of living compassion. You will learn new conceptual constructs to support your understanding of inner compassion.

You will have the opportunity to discover the perennial strength in compassion and the living energy in nonviolence as you journey from upheaval and chaos to transformation and potency.

Each session includes:

- Presentations: Principles and practices of Living Compassion.
- Demonstrations: Robert will guide you through processes to model Living Compassion in action.
- Practice: Opportunities to practice a process and receive support.
- Resources: Readings, articles, and handouts will be shared throughout the program.

Robert Gonzales will present practices and processes he has developed in 30+ years of teaching Nonviolent Communication, as well as from his personal self-exploration into how to live with compassion moment-to-moment in any and every situation that arises. The recorded sessions incorporate teachings, process demonstrations and exercises, dyad meditations, guided group activities, and silent integration times.

Robert's evolutionary approach to Nonviolent Communication — with an emphasis on self-compassion — has helped thousands worldwide to find joy and freedom from suffering previously unavailable to them. Living Compassion is the body of work that has evolved from this emergence.
