Gun Violence Prevention- A Message from MJ

3/16/2018

3 Comments

 
Little Friends For Peace will be marching to end gun violence- AND working as we have for 37 years to replace the guns with skills for peace. Meet us at: Archives Metro Stop, 11 am, Saturday March 24.

With daily practice in the loving tools and practices of nonviolence, LFFP equips people to build a culture of peace: to create healthy relationships in our schools, communities, and homes. 

We need to stop and heal from the trauma, from the fear and the anger that make people feel the need for guns. 

We need to rewire our brains to respond, not in anxiety and paranoia, but in trust and creativity. We can build the beloved community of healthy minds and bodies with loving hearts. 

Each day we can start with the Wellness Wheel to ground ourselves, then invite our families, colleagues, and students to share what's going on inside that delights and what demands effort and courage today. 

We can share our gifts and talents. We can trust in our skills to resolve conflicts and restore our relationships with compassion and empathy. 

LFFP offers the care and skills to let go of our fears and to build caring communities where we all can share, shine, and win. 

Please join us and dance with us in a culture of peace!
