At its most superficial level\, NVC provi des a framework for speaking with truthfulness (satya) and nonviolence (ah imsa). However\, NVC is rooted in the understanding that the most direct p ath to peace is through self-awareness and awareness of our interdependenc e. And when our NVC practice becomes well-established\, we release attachm ent to outcomes and the knowing of our shared humanity awakens.\nIn this w orkshop\, we explore what it means to give in a way that is selfless and j oyful—giving that springs not from attachment\, obligation\, or aversion \, but from the expansive movement of our heart toward another. Through th is exploration\, we discover the paradox that lies at the center of Karma Yoga: that when we give freely and fully\, the distinction between giver a nd receiver dissolves\, and we experience our fundamental human interconne ction—the recognition that we are not separate.\nKamala Itzel Hayward wa s an economic justice and public policy lawyer for over a decade before sh ifting her focus to wellness\, mindfulness\, and healing.
