This workshop Peaceful Warrior:
will foster:

  • Being your own authority.
  • Working with conflict heartfully.
  • Living in your "yes" and "no" with power and compassion.
  • Setting and expanding boundaries.
  • Finding ways to ask for help with both power and compassion.
 

The peaceful warrior is an archetypal image of power and compassion. Men such as Gandhi, Martin Luther King Jr., Henry David Thoreau and Harvey Milk, are images that embody the characteristics of a peaceful warrior. Gay/bisexual men in our community that might currently be seen as peaceful warriors are Michael Kelly, Rainbow Sash; Greg Louganis, former Olympic diver; Jim Mitulski, MCC Elder; David Nimmons, Manifest Love; Christian de la Huerta, Executive Director of Q-Spirit; Mark Leno, CA. Assemblyperson and you.

 


----------------------------------------------
Some Native Americans have a saying, "Walk Your Talk". Its meaning is to bring our words/intentions, energies, body and actions in congruence with one another. The experiential body oriented exercises in this workshop will lend themselves to being a peaceful warrior who "Walks His Talk".
