In our first four classes we focused on prevention, both establishing, & maintaining, safety & consent. Classes 5 & 6 are focusing on what we do after a consent collision, rupture, or violation.

Depending on the nature of the problem we need a repertoire of responses that are proportional to different types of offenses.

We will be exploring pathways to change and ways of being accountable. We will have more discussion and practice of self-care, safety, and communication tools for hearing someone’s truth.

It can be challenging to not react in a defensive way if someone comes to you with righteous indignation or expressing a lot of hurt. How to respond depends, but in general it’s best to start by listening. Remember, listening is doing something. We will be continuing to practice and explore some of these skills more deeply.

Not being defensive also means being willing to take in what the other person is saying and maybe realizing or learning something. Maybe repairing or restoring a damaged relationship, or perhaps approaching a new relationship with new wisdom.
