Practicing the Art of the Heart

Andrea Cohen, MSW, will discuss compassionate listening in her January 10 presentation of "Practicing the Art of the Heart" with the Northwest Center for Creative Aging

Join Rebecca Crichton in conversation with Andrea Cohen, MSW, longtime facilitator of Compassionate Listening practices. The event, “Practicing the Art of the Heart,” takes place on Wednesday, January 10 at 7:30pm as part of Northwest Center for Creative Aging’s collaboration with Town Hall Seattle.

Andrea Cohen is author of Practicing the Art of Compassionate and director of a film about compassionate listening, Children of Abraham. She will share personal stories of how these practices have transformed conflicts — with families, friends, and within challenged communities. The practices have turned these conflicts into relationships based on greater understanding, caring, and connecting. She co-directed the Jewish-German reconciliation project for many years.
