The HeART of Human Connectedness

Description

Connecting well with people can be a limitless source of togetherness, love, support, understanding, healing, transformation... We are not meant to be alone in this world despite the universal loneliness we all know and experience. And while there are obstacles in connecting and understanding each other well, all it takes to overcome them is to commit to what brings us together. And what brings us together are human feelings and needs. They are the universal language of humanity and the one we need to return to anytime disagreement, conflict, tension or disconnection are present.

The HeArt of Human Connectedness is centered around understanding the dynamics of human feelings and needs in the way we relate to ourselves and others.  Through lectures and plenty of exercises and examples it strives to make it possible for each learner to incorporate the beauty of listening to connect, the power that comes from owning our emotions and the nurturing that aligning to our needs offers.

The course is a combination of lectures, examples and questions for self-exploration.
