During this full day Saturday workshop we will explore how to develop restorative skills and how to cultivate a restorative mindset using restorative values, intentions and language. We offer an overview of RP, explore how it consciously builds relationships and outline an introduction to the restorative questions. We focus on EQ, on understanding, identifying and transforming difficult emotions such as anger and shame. We explore the transformative potential of restorative language and how it brings us from shame and disconnection to empathy and connection.
