“If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion.” — His Holiness the Dalai Lama
There is solid, fascinating and ever-growing evidence based research showing that compassion & connectedness are good for us on many levels: psychologically, emotionally, and physically as well as spiritually. We’ll be working with Tibetan Buddhist compassion meditation of Tonglen and modern nonviolent communication methods to integrate compassion, connection, and meaning into our relationship with ourselves and the world.

About Sunil: I started studying Nonviolent Communication (NVC) in 2004. NVC has had a transformational effect on my professional and personal life. I am continually amazed at the power and simplicity of this way of living life. While I am not a certified NVC trainer, I am happy when the fruits of my personal practice can benefit others. I consider myself a lifelong NVC learner and explorer.
