Calm and Center workshop on Oct. 28 - webinar

Engaging in difficult conversations can elicit all sorts of emotions: anxiety, fear, anger and even dread. How can we help ourselves get to a place where we can show up for these conversations as our most present, grounded selves? What happens when we resist the urge to run away from difficult dialogue, and instead approach it with curiosity and compassion for ourselves and others? 

Join Rutgers Office of Equity and Inclusion for our ‘Calm and Center’ workshop to learn techniques for self assessment, emotional regulation and grounding in preparation to engage in contentious conversations. This workshop is part of the ‘Ideas That Ignite Change’ series and draws from the CLARA Communication De-Escalation Method and the Bridging the Gap curriculum for engaging across difference.
