Nonviolent Communication, or NVC, offers practical tools for us to practice Karma Yoga—the path of selfless service. At its most superficial level, NVC provides a framework for speaking with truthfulness (satya) and nonviolence (ahimsa). However, NVC is rooted in the understanding that the most direct path to peace is through self-awareness and awareness of our interdependence. And when our NVC practice becomes well-established, we release attachment to outcomes and the knowing of our shared humanity awakens.
In this workshop, we explore what it means to give in a way that is selfless and joyful—giving that springs not from attachment, obligation, or aversion, but from the expansive movement of our heart toward another. Through this exploration, we discover the paradox that lies at the center of Karma Yoga: that when we give freely and fully, the distinction between giver and receiver dissolves, and we experience our fundamental human interconnection—the recognition that we are not separate.
