My work is shifting from purely NVC training which I did for the past many years into new things that are still in the making and not yet definable. For instance, Feb of this year (2007), I facilitated a project planning meeting of inter-religious clergy for 4 faiths (Buddhist Monks, Hindu Iyars, Muslim Malawis and Christen Priests) who are doing peace projects together in a very polarized and divided war situation in Sri Lanka. In June, I helped a couple in UK create an alternative wedding ceremony incorporating their two different spiritual traditions and ideals and facilitated the ceremony which was described by guests as "unforgettable" and "most meaningful wedding they have attended".
