SUMMARY:Deep Listening with Community Mindfulness Project (In-Person)
DESCRIPTION:Mindful Listening + Speaking: Deep listening to understand the needs and interests of the communities we serve is an essential skill for nonprofits. \nJoin Community Mindfulness Project for a morning workshop of Mindful Listening + Speaking. This highly interactive workshop combines the principles of mindfulness and non-violent communication. Attendees build the skills\, trust and confidence needed to listen to others and to speak in a way that we can be heard. \nThose in the nonprofit space are working to improve the lives of others:  we seek to identify unmet needs and then foster the conditions that will enable them to be met.  We can best serve our communities\, by listening to what they have to tell us about their lived experiences – what their needs and interests are\, and the change that is needed.  Service without asking and listening can cause resources to be wasted\, or worse\, can cause harm. \nPersonally\, being heard is a deeply healing experience.  In fact\, it could be argued that much of the suffering and conflict in our country today stems from people of all backgrounds feeling unseen and unheard. During this workshop\, most of the time will be spent engaged in practices that allow people to speak and to listen\, to hear\, and be heard in order to foster a deep sense of peace and a strong sense of optimism about future interactions. \nThe workshop material is based on the Marshall Rosenberg’s Non-Violent Communication work\, the system outlined in the Harvard Negotiating Project’s Getting to Yes\, and Oren Sofer’s Mindful Communication. \n  \nRegister Now

SUMMARY:Mindfulness Book Club with Community Mindfulness Project
DESCRIPTION:Three sessions: Aug 2\, Aug 23\, & Sept 27 at 7:00 PM \nJoin FCCF and Community Mindfulness Project online as we explore the book\, Peak Mind\, by Dr. Amishi Jha and its pledge to help you “find your focus and own your attention by investing just 12 minutes a day.” \nDr. Amishi Jha was a meditation skeptic until she saw images that showed a brain in a negative mood and a brain in a positive mood.  It was the early 2000s and when she asked how to get the negative brain to look like the positive brain Richard Davidson\, the researcher showing the images\, answered\, “Meditation”.  Since then\, she’s been studying meditation and its effects on people’s attention and health.  Peak Mind is a fun\, fast read that describes her journey through this research\, what she’s learned\, and how to apply it in very accessible ways. \n  \nRegister Now\nBooks will be provided.
