The BePeace Workshop, presented by Rita Marie Johnson, will introduce the practice of BePeace, the synergistic combination of HeartMath for “feeling peace” and Nonviolent Communication for “speaking peace”.  It will include exercises so that the transformational power of this method can be experienced.   

BePeace is highly effective in preventing and resolving conflicts.  As Rita Marie explains, “In achieving my goal to be a true peacemaker, I was missing a solid how-to in resolving day to day conflicts.  I researched social and emotional learning methods for 10 years, looking for the way to “be peace” in every moment.  Now I can progress each day rather than being stuck for years in the same reactive patterns.”  BePeace is also being used in counseling, team building, mediation, small group work and creative problem solving. 

Start: Jun 7 2008 - 6:30pm
