This course will explore how communication dynamics can lead in one direction or another, towards clear understanding or frustrating misunderstanding. Clear communication affects relationships, be they personal or family, business or political, leading openness and connection rather then confusion and frustration.

Resources will include selections from Tarthang Tulku Rinpoche’s Revelations of Mind, as well as extracts from thinkers such as Alain de Botton (In the Course of Love), Douglas Harding, (The Man with No Head); psychologists Marsha Linehan (cognitive behavioral), Diana Fosha (The Transforming Power of Affect), Harville Hendrix and Helen Hunt; and novelists Alexander McCall Smith (The Sunday Philosophy Club) and David Foster Wallace.

Dates:
Tue 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM, Apr 2, 9, 23, & 30
