INTERnational Week for Nonviolence

I am privileged to be a member of the Summit Council of the INTERnational Week for Nonviolence, which will be held 16th-23rd August 2014.

If you are organising an event during that week, please post the details in the comments section below.

I have also posted some NVC events - not just events for that week – here.

One of my guests on my recent show about Black parents and nonviolence was saying, "You CAN'T teach young people nonviolence because they have to fight".

I was reminded of the first time I met Marshall Rosenberg, author of Nonviolent Communication.  I asked him about his work with Black gang leaders. 

 

I talk about this in the audio below.   

I am also inspired by the example of Malcolm X. He was alienated and disaffected, and he became involved in petty crime and ended up in prison. But the right support and encouragement, and given the right inspiration, he became a leader.

Listen below for more.

I am really passionate about this work. NVC is saving people's lives all over the world, and it could save your life. It could save your child's life.

The INTERnational Week for Nonviolence is not exclusively for people of African heritage. It's for everyone.

Help me celebrate the Week for Nonviolence this coming August.

I have written about Nonviolent Communication in my new ebook, Affirmations for Parents.

Are We Listening to Our Children?

Most parents think they know where their children are and what they get up to.  But that's not necessarily the case. 

I was privileged to do a guest post for the Advice for Parents blog recently.  Check it out:

Relaxation and Stress Release: Fight or Flight?

 Listen below for a free relaxation audio. 

You know what it*s like. You are in a difficult situation and you go into "fight or flight" mode. Your heart is pounding. Your mouth is dry. Your palms are sweaty and clammy. Your legs are shaking. You feel tension in your jaw and in your shoulders. You have butterflies in your stomach.

The problem is, you are in an argument with your landlord. Or you are at a job interview. Or you are in a difficult situation with your boss, or with a client, or with your bank manager.

You need to relax, and EFT can help.  Listen below for more information.  Click here to download this and other relaxation audios - free.

Did You Know Elton John Was Bullied?

As is well known, Elton John was painfully shy as a young man. His sudden, massive fame thrust him into the limelight, which he found difficult - he only felt comfortable when performing.

What is perhaps less well-known is that he was bullied. The bullying – both verbal and physical – continued into his adult life and even after he became famous. To read more, see: What Can we Learn from Elton John? 

Many young people suffer bullying and, unfortunately, these are the ones who are most likely to feel the need to carry a weapon.  Check it out:

We must help children and young people to find nonviolent solutions. For more about how to resolve conflicts nonviolently, click here to download my new ebook, Affirmations for Parents, now.
