“Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.” - Rumi
This group will be meeting for two 3-hour sessions. One begins on Saturday, October 1st from 12pm-3pm CT, and the second begins on Sunday, October 2nd from 8am-11am CT via Zoom. The zoom link will be emailed one week out from the start date. It is not mandatory to attend both sessions. Our hope is you will receive something from each session individually. One registration provides access to both days.
Do you look for love in ALL the “wrong” places?
Do you have the rare gift of finding the most unavailable person in the room?
Do you start out warm in a relationship and then get distant when communication fails?
Is your language of love “hide and seek”?
Is intimacy a scary word, a dirty word, or a Greek tragedy to you?
Join us while we explore these questions and more. What we hope you’ll get is:
An understanding of how you relate with warmth, intimacy, connection, and love
Knowing and working with your barriers for experiencing love
How you use language to grow and love
Exploring being in the stillness of intimacy
What it means to have a spiritual depth in intimacy
The requested amount is $108 USD per participant for the weekend series.

Facilitated by Manasi Saxena and Karen Starz, International Nonviolent Communication Trainers
Manasi Saxena (CNVC Certified Trainer; Founder, enCOMPASSion) is a learning facilitator whose focus lies around the intersection of spiritual/personal growth and social change/community development. Her core focus is to work closely with communities at the grassroots, with a vision of shifting from sustenance-survival to a paradigm of sustainability, collaboration, and resilience through community-driven social change.
Karen is a consultant, coach, speaker, and facilitator. The connection with Marshall Rosenberg’s work and NVC came naturally and peaked further, with ongoing exploration into the foundations of NVC. Her background spans many areas, from interpersonal relationships, to businesses, schools, and non-profit organizations. Her approach to NVC is based on embodying the whole of nonviolent consciousness to create an automatic, empathic, somatic response and awareness.
