Through engaging partner activities, you'll learn to track your body's responses in conversaion and during “conflicts”. In subsequent sessions, we'll explore needs, boundaries, and different conflict styles, offering practical exercises and role-playing to enhance your communication skills and self-awareness. 

As we progress, you'll learn to work with your nervous system and conflict style and discover effective tactics for resolving conflicts both internally and externally. Our final session will feature group brainstorming and role-play activities to equip you with tangible strategies for managing conflicts and fostering healthier relationships. 

We will end our time together with a potluck gathering, sharing circle, and celebration of newfound insights and growth. Optional take-home activities will be provided throughout for further reflection and practice.
