Our program addresses cross-cultural understanding, a very important but not well recognized aspect of conflict resolution. Many conflicts have been worsened because of lack of cross-cultural understanding on the part of all involved. While trauma exacerbates differences between people, the simple lack or ignorance of cross- cultural understanding adds an unnecessary layer of mistrust, separation and alienation. We explore all the categories that are affected by culture.

Communication Skills

We learn the signs of Trauma Vortex in communication and their impact on relationships, and how they encourage polarization and demonization; and we address the trauma vortex communication rough, as well as it subtle forms.  We learn to communicate from the healing vortex, inviting more understanding, cooperation and connection. We learn to inspire the feelings that facilitate conflict resolution, peacefulness and harmony.
