Cultivating peace : becoming a 21st-century peace ambassador / by O'Dea, James.(CARDINAL)346496;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Peace is the real game changer -- Peace and freedom from the inside out -- Expanding your comfort zone -- Ending the transmission of wounds -- Peaceful communication : engaged listening -- Peaceful communication : facts, experience, and truth -- Peaceful communication and energy mastery -- Achieving piece through creativity and dialogue -- Peace work and whole-systems shift -- the 21st-century peace ambassador as evolutionary leader."This profound guidebook reframes and expands the mission of building a global culture of peace. Going far beyond conventional techniques of conflict resolution, James O'Dea provides a holistic approach to peace work, covering its oft-ignored cultural, spiritual, and scientific dimensions while providing guidance suitable even for those who have never considered themselves peacebuilders. O'Dea is unique in his ability to integrate personal experience in the world's violent conflict zones with insights gathered from decades of work in social healing, human rights advocacy, and consciousness studies. Following in the footsteps of Gandhi and King, O'Dea keeps the dream of peace alive by teaching us how to dissolve old wounds and reconcile our differences. He strikes deep chords of optimism even as he shows us how to face the heart of darkness in conflict situations. His soulful but practical voice speaks universally to peace activists, mediators, negotiators, psychologists, educators, businesspeople, and clergy--and to everyday citizens."--P. [4] of cover.
