A
message from Thom Bond
Facilitator and Founder of the Compassion
Course,
Founder
and Executive Director, NYCNVC
It
is with deep gratitude and awe that
we announce the opening for registration
for the 2012 Compassion Course.
This
year's course has come to a close with
almost 100% of participants completing
all four segments.
Why
We Offer the Course
My
"Compassionate Communication Career"
started in 2001, after reading Marshall
Rosenberg's book "Nonviolent Communication,
a Language of Life." It provided
answers I had been looking for since
childhood.
Marshall's
work showed me
that there really are skills
and practices that we can learn, that
empower us to be more compassionate...
All while keeping our well-being, passion
and drive intact... Ways of thinking,
speaking and acting that allow us to
skillfully move through conflict without
hurting or hating.
In
the same way that other great thinkers
have developed other technologies, thanks
to Marshall Rosenberg, the technology
of compassion has advanced. He has distilled
a way to think about being human, that
can help create a world we want to leave
our children's children. My gratitude
for Marshall's gift is impossible for
me to express to my satisfaction.
This
course is for anyone who wants to learn
concepts, skills, and insights to create
and experience more compassion and understanding
in your life.
It's
my honor and dream, to share this with
you.
With
Love and Gratitude,
Thom
