Quotes for those who weren't there

2006-06-05T12:35:00.000+01:00

Those attending the day with Marshall Rosenberg were overwhelmingly
satisfied, stimulated and energised.

Some of the quotes you provided about 21st May for the purpose of providing feedback to those who did not attend were:
-A roller coaster of emotion from laughter to tears
-Radically changed my ideas about parenting
-Invaluable
-An intensely moving & evocative experience
-I’m so grateful to have found NVC!
-You missed hearing a wonderful orator explain NVQ
-I loved the simplicity with which it all comes to listening to needs, mine & others, and then with the connection it is easy to meet everyone’s needs.
-These are really essential skills; I cannot overestimate their importance
-‘Each of us is enormously powerful –we can enrich or destroy life’
-‘Reach out to life’
-Do it poorly but do it!

Here's a photo taken at the end of the most successful and uplifting event that Mediation UK has been involved in putting on. (We may be looking a little washed-out in this photo after a long and rewarding day.) Thank you to Daren, Anna and Jo for proposing and planning the event jointly with Mediation UK; it met our needs to share inspiration and offer people ways forward to spread nonviolence. Please take this opportunity now to join the Communicating Needs yahoo group

Commemorating Duncan Weir; your spare leaflets please

2006-05-17T10:15:00.000+01:00

The 21st May is also a commemoration of Duncan Weir, Puffin Design. Duncan produced many leaflet designs for Mediation UK, and I valued working with him for what I saw as his originality, commitment and willingness to 'go the extra mile'. Aged 46, with a wife and two sons, Duncan died suddenly the day after completing the leaflet for the 21st May day with Marshall Rosenberg. Duncan's creativity was heart warming.
I am trying to gather in another 120 leaflets of the 10,000 distributed in order to ensure that everyone has a commemorative leaflet in their pack when they register on Sunday. Please bring your spare leaflets on Sunday morning.
