The Tools for Peace Program for Professionals is designed for adults in professions
in which a means to help others is essential.
The program is designed for adults with a professional commitment to benefit others.
To strengthen one’s own motivation and capacity to benefit others Tools For Peace offers methods, strategies and actions to:
• Process and manage negative emotions and stress
• Resolve conflicts within oneself and with others
• Interact harmoniously and productively with others
• Effectively cope with one’s own difficulties and alleviate the difficulties of others
Tools For Peace emphasizes self-transformation, developing our own qualities to effectively serve the needs of others.
Using the Personal Mandala Workbook as a guide, program participants combine mindfulness, meditation, artistic expression, writing, and discussion to create
a personal mandala. The workshop, held at our Ari Bhöd camp facility, is combined with yoga, tai-chi, and massage to support personal transformation.
Personally and with peers, professionals explore how to apply Tools For Peace within the context of their own lives and practices in a supportive and encouraging atmosphere.
